Security programs anc: procedures already exist to protect clas-
sified matters. However, information generally available to the
public as well as certain detectable activities reveal the
existence of, and sometimes details about, classified or
sensitive information or undertakings. Such indicators may
assist those seeking to neutralize or exploit U.S. Government
actions in the area of national security. Application of the
