OpSec

So I've been looking around the forum a bit. It seems like no one actually cares about their own OpSec. People post about their animals, pictures of themselves, etc.

If you do not care about your own OpSec, I just would like to know why you do not care about it.

I know I have made some mistakes in the past about my own OpSec but I quickly fix it immediately.


And of course if you have been living under a rock and don't know what OpSec is here is a explanation:

"Operations Security, or OPSEC, is the process by which we protect unclassified information that can be used against us.  OPSEC challenges us to look at ourselves through the eyes of an adversary (individuals, groups, countries, organizations). Essentially, anyone who can harm people, resources, or mission is an adversary.

OPSEC should be used to protect information, and thereby deny the adversary the ability to act.  Nearly 90% of the information collected comes from “Open Sources”. Any information that can be obtained freely, without breaking the law, is Open Source.  .  It is social network sites, tweets, text messages, blogs, videos, photos, GPS mapping, newsletters, magazine or newspaper articles, your college thesis, or anything else that is publicly available.

Our OPSEC objective is to ensure a safe and secure environment. OPSEC is best employed daily when making choices about what communications to use, what is written in emails or said on the phone, postings  on social networking sites and blogs.  Any information you put in the public domain is also available to your adversaries. 

The bottom line is that we can be are our own worst enemy.  Google yourself or your organization and see how much you can find out." - DODEA

Nobody online can ever be totally safe, unless you stay offline permanently and live in the Mountains with a German Shepard dog.

not necessarily true, you cant be 100% safe but you can be very very close to it.

Yeah, that's what I meant, closer to safe is better than further away. ^^

On a side note, I tried adding your Skype to join the DF Skype chat.

Sadly I'm going to agree with Herbert. Nobody online is going to do anything to me but their childish pranks like doxing ddosing or sending pizzas to my house, who knows. One thing I know for a fact is nobody will pull up to my house without getting their head blown in so I'd like to see someone with the balls to get my information and try to do something with it.
