Scope:
The Department of Energy (DOE) Operations Security
(OPSEC) Program is established by DOE Order
to disrupt or defeat the ability of foreign
intelligence or other adversaries to exploit
sensitive Departmental activities or information
and to prevent the inadvertent disclosure of
such information. In today's information environment,
the effective conduct of government activities
requires increased efforts to ensure that adversaries
cannot obtain information that would allow them
to achieve their objectives or undermine ours.
While most traditional programs are in place
to protect classified information, OPSEC addresses
security awareness and countermeasures involving
the protection of both classified and unclassified
controlled information that could contribute
to an adversary's collection objectives.
