Operational security

Operational security (ZO) in the terminology of the Ministry of Interior of the Polish People's Republic, the deadline for which the registration and the type of operational matter were determined. An unambiguous, non-determinant "interest" form of registration, intended to "protect" a person. Used mostly for hiding the registration of the agential nature of contacts with the registered Security Service personnel.

Initially, "hedge" was a general term and ambiguous term, which was synonymous with the inclusion of a person, the environment, an institution with an "operational interest" or a person in the register of records (files, etc.) SB; The persons covered by the various categories of "civic assistance" are registered under the "Guidance" 1960b). In the 1970s and 1980s, SB became a more common practice of recording people as "operational security", "security people", which meant that they could be monitored, although with a lower level of operational engagement than the EC or SOS. recording in the operational record "hostile act"). Much more widespread, however, was the conspiracy by this form of registration of the agential nature of contacts with those registered in the SB register of persons. In the event of the filing of an operational security file and registering it in the archive journal I, ie the inventory of the act of terrorism, it can be assumed that the person registered as a "security" It was the agent who dealt with such a file, kept the contacts from the SB agents of an agential nature, or was subject to "elaboration" on a basis similar to the "elaboration" of the KTW. "Hedging" was also a category of registration in the registration instruments of the "C" Office of the Ministry of Interior, which is appropriate for persons registered in their own registration documents by Department I of the Ministry of Interior and Office of the Ministry of Interior. The intrinsic nature of the registration was recorded in the records and records kept by these entities. The "C" Department Files and the MSW Study Bureau requested "security" to cover the actual nature of the registration and to enable the SB to know about the actions of other SBs against the registered person and to exclude the possibility of registration by another entity. There was also a procedure for "securing foreign trips", which meant informing the operating unit that registered a person in the registration instruments of "C" Office of the Ministry of Interior, each time applying for a passport (or other document entitling him to go abroad). The word "security", "safeguard" also functioned in the common language of the SB to mark the inclusion of personal data in the instruments of registration, ie registration ("secure in the file").
