The
Pentagon OPSEC working group released a brochure for DoD personnel and their families
on September 2. The brochure underlines the importance of OPSEC while publishing
a list of what to do and what not to do regarding Internet safety. The
brochure advises all DoD personnel and families actively posting material on the
web to consult supervisors or security or OPSEC managers if they're not sure if
information is sensitive. Posting information about upcoming deployments, a family
member's unit or location, and hometown addresses might seriously threaten the
lives of DoD personnel and their families. The
brochure can be obtained by visiting the Army Knowledge Online Website at https://www.us.army.mil.
