What is OPSEC??
Operations Security (OPSEC) is the process by which we protect critical information whether it is classified or unclassified that can be used against us. It focuses on preventing our adversaries' access to information and actions that may compromise an operation.
OPSEC challenges us to look at ourselves through the eyes of an adversary and deny the adversary the ability to act.
Some of you might say "well now… I'm not involved in any activity that requires top opsec measures" while some of you might say "Azazel is a game developing group of creative people" or "we're not doing anything wrong" etc etc
Just try and understand that telegram should be the least of your worries

OPSEC was developed as a methodology during the Vietnam War when U.S. Navy Admiral Ulysses S. Grant Sharp, commander in chief of the U.S. Pacific Command, established the Purple Dragon team to find out how the enemy obtained information on military operations before those operations took place.
In 1988, President Ronald Reagan signed National Security Decision Directive (NSDD) 298, which made OPSEC a government-wide requirement. The directive tasked agencies with implementing OPSEC and named the Director of the National Security Agency as the executive agent for inter-agency support.
In January 2021, the White House released National Security Presidential Memorandum-28 (NSPM-28) to update OPSEC's understanding and convey its importance in today's threat environment.
Operational Security has since spread beyond the military to other parts of the federal government and the private sector.

Operations security (OPSEC) is a process that identifies critical information to determine whether friendly actions can be observed by enemy intelligence, determines if information obtained by adversaries could be interpreted to be useful to them, and then executes selected measures that eliminate or reduce adversary exploitation of friendly critical information.

OPSEC is military jargon, but the concept is not limited to the Army, Navy, Space Force, Air Force, Marine Corps, or Coast Guard.
Protecting classified information or activities is the goal of measures like OPSEC, but one of the primary focuses of OPSEC training for men and women in uniform involves how to control non-classified information so as to deny telegraphing future or current plans, projects, or actions to an enemy.

What does this mean?
Intelligence gathering does not happen in a limited fashion–things that seem like the most innocuous details can be observed by an enemy.
When added to a list of other details also under close scrutiny those innocuous details can reveal a lot about a military unit, what it is currently up to, and when things might “get real” in terms of a real-world deployment versus a military exercise or wargame.

OPSEC: Loose lips might destroy airstrips
Operational Security is something every Airman and civilian in the U.S. Air Force should know about and it is critical in protecting the mission and people all over the world.
One Of The Most Basic OPSEC Considerations:
There is an old WW2 expression, “Loose lips sink ships.”
This was a catchphrase used during the war to remind people not to talk about anything related to troop movements, base activities, deployments, or even preparation for deployment.
In a wartime scenario, the enemy knows very little about a given military community but will start to pay attention to it in any number of ways:
Spies-Primary method is via spies sent to eavesdrop on conversations, take photographs and take note of any unusual or atypical talk or activities.
Now imagine that a sailor calls his wife to say he won’t be home that evening because of a duty commitment. That in and of itself doesn’t reveal much and the sailor may think that little nugget of information doesn’t mean much. But an enemy eavesdropping on cell phone calls to and from the area where the base is located may hear this conversation repeated by dozens or even hundreds of other sailors who are preparing for the same mission. “Honey, I won’t be home tonight” sounds innocuous, but it can tell a tech-savvy enemy a great deal.
Satellite-Add to that the enemy’s potential ability to pull satellite imagery of Navy ships and activities that surround them. So when you add up increased activity detected by satellite plus the phone calls we mentioned, and you can see where OPSEC begins to get compromised when people aren’t as vigilant as they ought to be.
Social media-Cherry on top is when you add social media into the mix as a complicating factor and it’s easy to see why the military puts such a premium on good OPSEC procedures and best practices.

What is geotagging??
Geotagging is the process of adding geographical identification to photographs, videos, websites and SMS messages. It is the equivalent of adding a 10-digit grid coordinate to everything posted on the Internet.
Some smartphones and digital cameras will automatically embed geotags into pictures and many people unknowingly upload photos to the Internet that contain location information.
One Soldier exposing his or her location can affect the entire mission. Deployed Soldiers, or Soldiers conducting operations in classified areas, should not use location-based social networking services.

When you don’t obey OPSEC and post your guns/cash/bitcoin (laser eyes) on social media and get Wrenched 🔧
Every moron on Twitter using/doing laser eyes in honor of SatOSHI is being indexed
Because essentially you are letting the world know that you are holding Bitcoin
