Increasing Security Agency-Wide

One of the first things David Saleeba did after taking the helm as assistant administrator of the Office of Security Management and Safeguards (Code X) was to tour the headquarters building looking for weaknesses in security. A former Secret Service agent, Saleeba's investigative experience immediately led him to have the paper recycling boxes inspected. What he found was in his mind unbelievable. Personnel records, contracting information and other confidential documents were found in almost every receptacle.

This discovery reinforced to Saleeba the need for a comprehensive agency-wide Operations Security (OPSEC) program. Ike Hendershot, Director of Special Programs has been tasked by Saleeba to develop and coordinate this program for NASA.
