MEMORANDUM FOR: Executive Officer/DDSW
SUBJECT Security Management
Directorate for Science and Technology
FOR 1967
I. General
In pursuit of its booed mission, the Security Management
Staff in 1967 will comprehensively oversee security policy,
security procedures, and security practices operative in the
Directorate. Special emphasis will be on learning what the
DDIS&T security problems are and assuring that communication
channels are built to provide a constant flaw to the staff of
feed-back security information from the Directorate Offices.
As a first step in this direction, a two-month study will be
effected in an effort to surface the security problems which
may now exist in DD/S&T and may not yet have registered on
the Directorate's management. Particular emphasis will be on
the four Offices (DEL, ORD, OCS, and FMSAC) which have not had
the benefit of resident security officer coverage.
II. Security Policy
Security Management Staff will work in the area of
security policy, particularly toward these objectives:

systems - SI, , and TER - in which DD/S&T is heavily
involved. In addition, seek areas, i.e., use of couriers,
where these systems might be safely consolidated.
D. Simplify the currently complex machinery which
adjudicates "need-to-know" in the myriad of clearances and
approvals used by the Directorate.
C. Develop a comprehensive but reasonably standardized
security approach to the handling of R and D efforts by
the Directorate in order to:
I. Reduce the number of "Special se or "Bigot
List" programs to an appropriate minimum.
2. Reduce the variance in security techniques that
currently exists from one R and D project to another
or one technical officer to another.
D. Work with the Office of Security toward reforms in
the clearance program as it applies to contractor personnel
and eonsulting personnel in order to:
1. Reduce the number of clearance options(ad hoc,
pre-contract, etc.) possible to use on contractor or
consultant personnel.
2. Provide clear guidlines onawhen each clearance
option is to be exercised.
parity Education
Security Management Staff will develop a Security
Education Program for the Directorate with these objectives in
mind

B. Enlightenment on basic security systems for staff
employees entering on duty with the Directorate. Con-
siderable thought will be given to forming a centralized
briefing service at the SMS level.
C. Knowledge by all Directorate personnel as to where
and when to go for security guidance or counseling.
D. Greater attention to security debriefings With the
goal of making the Directorate a model of uneed-tolknow"
discipline in a large organization. This will require
close watch over personnel transfers, organizational
changes etc.
IV. Ittitss trial fiepurity
Security Management Staff will work in this area to:
A. Prevent unnecessary security programming on indus-
trial efforts that can operate on an overt and/or
unclassified basis.
B. Effect a proper division of labor between Directorate
security officers and those of the Office of Logistics
Security Staff and the Office of Security's Industrial
Security Support Division. In general, the philosophy
promoted will be to keep the personnel and operational
security matters under Directorate Jurisdiction while
seeking outside help on the physical security problems.
C. Seek close coordination between DD/S&T Offices as
they interact with the same industrial concerns to
economize on labor and travel costs where possible.
D. Build st standardized security approach to the various
problems involved in the travel overseas by contractor
personnel.
