Operational security is a process that managers can use to protect sensitive information from falling into the wrong hands. This includes viewing operations as if you were an adversary. One of the most popular types of security is OPSEC. It’s used by both military and private companies to keep data safe.

OPSEC is important because it helps organizations protect their most sensitive data and prevent it from getting into the wrong hands. It provides a different way of approaching cybersecurity and data security by encouraging IT and security teams to look at their systems and processes from the perspective of potential attackers. This approach helps prevent the inadvertent leak or exposure of sensitive data and improves organizations’ security defenses.

The OPSEC process is most effective when it’s fully integrated into all planning and operational processes. It involves five steps:

1. Identifying critical information,
2. Analyzing threats to that information,
3. Examining vulnerabilities to those threats,
4. Assessing the risk of the vulnerability being exploited by a threat agent with each step increase in difficulty.
5. Get counter measurements in place.
