Executive Order 12036, dated 24 January 1978, provides that the Director of Central Intelligence will develop programs to ensure the protection of intelligence sources and methods. The vital need for such a program is brought into ever sharper focus as the level of unauthorized disclosures of classified information in the public media continues to rise. Recent revelations concerning proposed SALT II verification techniques are vivid examples of these disclosures. Each revelation increases the risk of exposure of sensitive intelligence sources and methods and the possibility of their denial. (C) 2. Agency employees are. requested to report immediately any known or suspected instance of unauthorized disclosure of classified information that appears in the public media. Such reprQrts should be made to the E13 Headquarters 25X1 Details, if known, should inc u e: i en i i- cation of the publication (date and issue number) or other medium in which the disclosure occurred; the title of the article; identification of the generic category of intelligence sources involved (e.g., HUMINT, COMINT, PHOTINT, etc.); identification of the known or suspected classified source document or presentation medium; an assessment of the disclosure's potential damage; and any information that could provide assistance or direction in resolving the disclosure. (U) 3. To be effective, reporting on unauthorized disclosures must be timely and contain as much factual data as is available. to the reporting individual. (U) Distribution: 0 - DCI /a/.
