Introduction: OPSEC is a military capability within Information Operations (IO). IO is the integrated employment of three operational elements: influence op
20、erations (IFO), electronic warfare operations and network warfare operations. IO aims to influence, disrupt, corrupt, or usurp adversarial human or automated decision-making while protecting our own. IFO employs the military capabilities of military information support operations (MISO), OPSEC, mili
21、tary deception (MILDEC), counterintelligence operations, public affairs (PA) operations and counterpropaganda operations to affect behaviors, protect operations, communicate commanders intent and project accurate information to achieve desired effects across the operational environment. OPSECs desir
22、ed effect is to influence the adversarys behavior and actions by protecting friendly operations and activities. 1.2. Operational Context: 1.2.1. Operational Focus. The OPSEC program is an operations function or activity and its goals are information superiority and optimal mission effectiveness. The
23、 emphasis is on OPERATIONS and the assurance of effective mission accomplishment. To ensure effective implementation across organizational and functional lines the organizations OPSEC Program Manager (PM), Signature Management Officer (SMO), or coordinator will reside in the operations and/or plans
24、element of an organization or report directly to the commander. For those organizations with no traditional operations or plans element, the commander must decide the most logical area to place management and coordination of the organizations OPSEC program while focusing on operations and the missio
25、n of the organization. Figure 1.2 illustrates the AF OPSEC functional structure. Figure 1.1. OPSEC Functional Structure Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo reproduction or networking permitted without license from IHS-,-,-AFI10-701 8 JUNE 2011 5 1.2.2. Operational effectiveness is enhanced when commande
26、rs and other decision-makers apply OPSEC from the earliest stages of planning. OPSEC involves a series of analyses to examine the planning, preparation, execution and post execution phases of any operation or activity across the entire spectrum of military action and in any operational environment.
27、OPSEC analysis provides decision-makers with a means of weighing how much risk they are willing to accept in particular operational circumstances in the same way as operations risk management allows commanders to assess risk in mission planning. 1.2.3. OPSEC must be closely integrated and synchroniz
28、ed with other IFO capabilities, security disciplines, and all aspects of protected operations (see references listed in Attachment 1). 1.3. Purpose: 1.3.1. The purpose of OPSEC is to reduce the vulnerability of Air Force missions by eliminating or reducing successful adversary collection and exploit
29、ation of critical information. OPSEC applies to all activities that prepare, sustain, or employ forces during all phases of operations. 1.3.2. OPSEC Definition. OPSEC is a process of identifying, analyzing and controlling critical information indicating friendly actions associated with military oper
30、ations and other activities to: 1.3.2.1. Identify those actions that can be observed by adversary intelligence systems. 1.3.2.2. Determine what specific indications could be collected, analyzed, and interpreted to derive critical information in time to be useful to adversaries. 1.3.2.3. Select and e
31、xecute measures that eliminate or reduce to an acceptable level the vulnerabilities of friendly actions to adversary exploitation. 1.4. Roles and Responsibilities: 1.4.1. Air Force organizations must develop and integrate OPSEC into their mission planning to ensure critical information and indicator
32、s are identified. At a minimum, the Air Force will integrate OPSEC into the following missions: military strategy, operational and tactical planning and execution, military indoctrination, support activities, contingency, combat and peacetime operations and exercises, communications-computer archite
33、ctures and processing, critical infrastructure protection, weapons systems, Research, Development, Test and Evaluation (RDT budget, acquire, and distribute OPSEC education materials. 1.4.15.8.3. Ensure the OPSEC training program clearly communicates to all personnel that the command will consider fo
34、r appropriate disciplinary action all failures to follow directed OSPEC measures and/or unauthorized disclosure of critical information. 1.4.15.9. Ensure OPSEC assessments are conducted annually to support operational missions. 1.4.15.10. Ensure OPSEC PMs and Coordinators integrate into or liaise wi
35、th the information protection, force protection, antiterrorism, and threat working groups and if necessary establish a working group to address OPSEC concerns. In addition, an ad-hoc working group will be established for any large-scale operation or exercise. NOTE: Refer to AFTTP 3-1.IO, Tactical Em
36、ployment Information Operations (U), Attachment 4 for additional guidance. 1.4.15.11. Ensure unit deployment managers add OPSEC awareness training as a mandatory requirement for deploying personnel. 1.4.15.12. Ensure all personnel such as, Web Site administrators, Webmasters, supervisors, public aff

OPSEC PMs, Coordinators and Planners: NOTE: Wing and installation SMOs
38、 will follow the guidance in Chapter 2, Signature Management. 1.4.16.1. OPSEC PMs are assigned in writing at organizations above the wing/installation level. OPSEC PMs may be assigned to FOAs and DRUs depending on their size, need and organizational reporting chain. Provided by IHSNot for ResaleNo r

OPSEC Coordinators are assigned in writing at each subordinate organization below the wing-level. At the MAJCOM level, National Guard Bureau (NGB), FOAs, or DRUs, OPSEC Coordinators will be appointed
40、within HQ directorates, as appropriate. 1.4.16.3. OPSEC PMs, and Coordinators will: 1.4.16.3.1. Have at a minimum a secret clearance (recommend Top Secret for Wing level positions and higher).
