Ramping Up for Homeland Security on VHS video. Starring Unknown. Directed by Unknown. 2003.

From the VHS box cover:

As terrorists seek to inflict ever-increasing numbers of casualties against the American people, the role that public safety agencies play in our defense assumes increasing importance as well. Information regarding our plans and procedures, training methods, response capabilities, and especially weaknesses and vulnerabilities has tremendous value to our enemies. Yet much of this information can be obtained from sources available to the general public.

Operations Security (OPSEC) is a process that the public safety community can use to deny adversaries the information they need to plan an effective attack against our citizens. The Interagency OPSEC Support Staff (IOSS), in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Justice, has produced this video designed to introduce the concept of OPSEC to public safety personnel.

This video is UNCLASSIFIED.
