Good Operations Security (OPSEC) practices DO NOT include: (Select the best answer)

A. Removing ID badges when leaving facility

B. Discussing sensitive information carefully in public

C. Watching for and reporting suspicious activity

D. Guarding against calls to obtain sensitive information

Answer. A. Removing ID badges when leaving facility

The proper OPSEC operation, namely the preservation of the safekeeping of sensitive info and the prevention of unauthorized access or disclosure, attempts to accomplish this goal.

The other options are:

B. Sensitive information should be treated carefully in public- It entails that when in a public place it should be handled sensitively to avoid unwanted eaves dropping or unintended disclosure.

C. Observing and reporting of any abnormal activity – Observation and reporting of all suspicious activity is necessary for safeguarding OPSEC.

D. Defending against calls to gain sensitive details – This identifies and responds to unsolicited calls or attempts to get confidential details by deceiving through social engineering technique and by other means.

The absence of ID badges whilst departing a facility is not, therefore, true compliance with OPSEC standards. Not wearing ID badges may be standard OPSEC measure when departing secure places but is not an administrative requirement for identification and access control purposes.
