OPSEC Operations Security:
The process of identifying, analyzing, and controlling unclassified critical information
indicating friendly actions associated with military operations and other activities.
OPSEC is a military capability within Information Operations.
OPSEC Five Steps Identify Critical Information
Analyze Threats
Analyze Vulnerabilities
Assess Risk
Apply Countermeasures
Identify Critical Information Critical information is specific facts about friendly intentions, capabilities, and activities.
Analyze Threats A threat is an adversary with the capability and intent to undertake actions detrimental
to the success of program activities or operations.
Analyze Vulnerabilities Vulnerability exists when the adversary is capable of collecting critical information or
indicators, analyzing them and then acting quickly enough to impact friendly
objectives.
Assess Risk A risk is a measure of the potential degree to which protected information is subject to
loss through adversary exploitation

accomplished by: Focusing on identifying and protecting only the information that requires protection.
Integrating security procedures into our daily activities so they become transparent.
Ensuring all Airmen understand their security roles and responsibilities.
COMSEC Communications Security refers to measures and controls taken to deny unauthorized
persons information derived from information systems.
COMSEC includes: Emission security (EMSEC)
Transmission security (TRANSEC)
EMSEC Denies the adversary access to information collected from the intercept and analysis of
emanations from information systems. For example, when two different computer wires
are too close together bleeding from one computer to the other could occur causing a
possible vulnerability.
TRANSEC Includes all measures taken to protect transmissions from interception and exploitation.
COMPUSEC Computer security is a process to safeguard information technology assets including
hardware, software, firmware, and information being processed, stored, and
communicated.
