Operations Security Support Element

Mission
The Operations Security Support Element (OSE) provides “Operational” Training, Assessment, Compliance, and Doctrine support to achieve a ready and resilient Army that applies a holistic approach to integrating and synchronizing OPSEC into the warfighting functions (WfFs) through a comprehensive DOTMLPF-P analysis designed to fight and win in future Joint-Multidomain environments.

OSE Lines of Effort (LOEs)
LOEs are tied to the DOTMLPF-P Analysis resulting in an Operational Campaign plan that establishes a Worldclass Capability Designed to improve the Collective OPSEC Readiness Posture of our Army!
