The Norfolk Naval Shipyard (NNSY) outlines Operations Security (OPSEC) contract requirements aimed at safeguarding sensitive information from unauthorized disclosure. OPSEC is a structured process that protects Critical Information (CI) - both classified and unclassified - vital for security. Contractors must prepare an OPSEC Plan, detailing their OPSEC activities, which must be submitted to a contracting official. All contractors and subcontractors are responsible for avoiding unintentional disclosures of sensitive information.
Key requirements include prohibiting disclosure of CI, ensuring no government CI is shared on public or personal platforms and managing the use of Portable Electronic Devices (PEDs) according to shipyard guidance. Specific countermeasures include restricting discussions about shipyard schedules and shredding sensitive documents. Contractors should promptly report any unauthorized disclosures or compromises of critical information.
Overall, these guidelines emphasize the importance of protecting government operations and information from potential adversaries, reflecting the Department of Defense's commitment to operational security during contract fulfillment.
