The purpose of Communications Security Material (COMSEC)
is designated to keep unauthorized persons from obtaining any information of value relating to National Security which might be derived from a study of communication material.
The CMS custodian
is the person designated in writing by the Commanding Officer to maintain the CMS account for the command. Their duties include receiving, inventorying, destroying, and issuing COMSEC material and equipment to authorized users and local holders. They are also responsible for training all personnel involved in CMS and submitting required COMSEC report to the proper authority in a timely manner. They also are primarily involved in planning, coordinating, managing, and documenting Communication Department portion of the Emergency Action Plan.
ACCESS
Navy uses principle of “circulation control” to maintain security of classified information. This means that knowledge of possession of material or info is permitted only by persons requiring access in the interest of national security. Access is literally the ability to gain or obtain something.
CLASSIFICATION
There are 4 classifications of material; UNCLASSIFIED, CONFIDENTIAL, SECRET, AND TOP SECRET
CLEARANCE
A security clearance is required prior to granting access to classified information. A national agency check or background investigation is completed on a person requiring clearance, depending on level needed. If no doubt is determined, a person’s loyalty is assumed to be consistent with the interests of national security.
COMPROMISE
The disclosure of classified info to a person who is not authorized access to that information. This disclosure could have occurred knowingly, willfully, or accidentally-through negligence. There are two types of compromise, suspected and confirmed. Suspected - believe material has been compromised but cannot definitely prove. (example: temporary loss of control). Confirmed - definite proof material is compromised. (example: lost material)
NEED TO KNOW
A person cannot be granted access to classified info based solely on his/her rank or position. There is a requirement to determine the level of access necessary for the person to perform his or his official duties (need to know). Need to know means a person must have access to the material to perform their duties.
RESTRICTED AREA
To provide for an effective and efficient method to restrict access and control movement where classified material is stored or used, such areas will be designated Restricted Areas and only those persons whose duties actually require access and who have been granted appropriate security clearance will be allowed freedom of movement within the area.
CONFIDENTIAL
This classification of info requires protection, but no as much as Secret or Top Secret material. If compromised, the unauthorized disclose of Confidential material could reasonably be expected to cause damage to our nation, and or embarrassment to the United States and/or its allies.
SECRET
This info requires a substantial amount of protection, and, if compromised, could cause serious damage to the national security.
TOP SECRET
Refers to that national security information or material which requires the highest degree of protection. If Top Secret material is compromised, it could result in exceptionally grave damage to our national security.
BWD
report compromise to the CMS Custodian or Security Manager during normal working hours. After working hours post a sentry and notify the Command Duty Officer. Example: An open security container which has classified material inside. Do not close any containers in this circumstance.
OPNAVINST 5510.1H
Individual who become aware of the loss, compromise or suspected compromise of classified information or material is to immediately notify their security manager or commanding officer. If the circumstances of discovery make such notification impractical, the individual is to notify the nearest NCIS field office or the most readily available command.
Emergency Destruction
Is a plan for ships and overseas stations to provide efficient, complete destruction of classified material in the event of an emergency. Examples would be a ship under duress, hostile fire, imminent boarding, etc.
