It is of most importance to develop an OPSEC program. Security Operations is an essential part of planning and development any operations. Historical examples shown that failures in observing OPSEC protocol have led to defeat or, at least, a loose of efficiency.
Security measures must be set up prior in order to be fully operational. Technology advances allow transforming any data into information and sharing it throughout the world in a matter of seconds, without being able to remove it once done. Any measure launched after the disclosure of information through internet has shown to be ineffective.

Informs shown information leaks are not always voluntary or consciously, but it can be very common in unaware personnel who might transmit critical data risking therefore the mission.
