SUBJECT Security Awareness (Poster) Program
1, On S March 1973.1 submitted the
attached memorandum which proposes a security poster
program (Attachment A). Since the subject of posters
had been previously discussed in meetings of the Long-Range
Planning Group and the Management Advisory Group, I advised
that his proposed program would be considered
at the next combined meeting of these groups. The meeting
was held on 2q March 1973; the results of which are set
forth in the attached Memorandum For The Record, dated
3 April 1973 (Attachment B).
25X1A 2. submitted nine proposed posters
for consideration. During the meeting, I took the oppor-
tunity to obtain an evaluation of each one. Each member
voted "yes," "no," or "maybe" on each of the posters. The
tally in i dicated on the sample posters attached to Mr.
25X1A I Imemorandum.
3. Please take the program from here, using such
suggestions submitted by and those of the
two groups mentioned as you deem appropriate. I would be
interested in your final plans before a formal poster program
is initiated.

MEMORANDUM FOR:
Deputy Director of Security
SUBJECT : Security Awareness Progra
1. Experience as the Covert Action Staff Securit fficer
for three years and as the Security Officer
four years has shown me beyond doubt that; peF for
ople can be induced
to practice better security if they are somehow motivated in that
direction.
2. As you know, I created a Security Awareness Program
for CA Staff from 1965 to 1968, which not only reduced drarnatically
security violations but actually created an esprit de corps within
that staff to maintain a good security record. This program caused
these employees to give some gratuitous consideration to improving
their security habits, which was exactly the response I had hoped
for.
3. 1 have been considering for the past several months
I can apply this system, which had such a definite affect n CA how
to the entire agency, Staff,
or indeed whether it was even feasible to at-
tempt such a program,.
4. 1 now believe it is possible to conduct a program which
will cause CIA employees, in a palatable wa,
of their security responsibilities. Ts to become more aware
5? I have broken the various components of the agency; p
Deputy
Directorate for Intelligence, Deputy Directorate for Plans, Deput
Directorate for Support, and the Deputy Directorate for Science y
and
Technology, down into their own smaller components, which together
number forty-eight. An example of this breakdown in the DDP would

 Approved For Release 2002/05/02 : CIA-RDP83B00823R000600260005-9
be the area divisions; in the DDI, it would be the Information
Requirements Staff, Imagery Analysis Service,
Service; in the DDS, the Office of Medical Services, Office of
Finance, Support Information Processing Systems; and in the
DD/S&T, it would include the Office of Elint, Office of Special
Activities, and Office of Special Projects. The office of the chief
of each of these various deputy directorates, as well as the Office
of the DCI, would be included as a unit.
6. These various forty-eight separate entities range in
numbers of people from as few as twenty to as many as several
hundred. My plan envisions creating posters tailored to the spe-
cific unit being serviced (see attached posters) and distributing one
to each employee in that unit. We already know from past experi-
ence that many of these posters are placed in prominent areas
within offices and become a reminder, hitting our targets in many
instances daily below the level of their awareness but still regis-
to ring.
7. 1 would address myself to one unit (see the attached list
of 48) a month. One can see that to get completely through the Agency
will take four years.
8. In areas where we have professional security officers (22
separate entities), I would coordinate this program with them. The
area security officers could insure that when their particular unit is
due to receive the poster each employee receives one. The area
security office could then follow up to determine whether there has
been any enthusiasm for the program and whether it has made a dif-
ference In reducing security violations?
9. I have been informed by the Chief, Visual Aide, that there
would be no cost involved in producing these posters. This will be a
simplified in-house print job not requiring photographically prepared
plates. Therefore there will be no production costs. I was told that
they would be happy to do this for me in whatever amounts I required.

10. This program would be another manifestation of the
Office of Security doing its job. We have multitudinous activities
which never come to the attention of many people for obvious rea-
sons. Here is an opportunity to let everyone in the agency know
that the Office of Security is actually concerned about security
violations, but concerned with a sense of compassion and humor.
I feel it would be helpful to our image, and we know that as a
stimulant to good security habits, it really works.
U. 1 request permission to pursue this program for a
twelve month period beginning in March 1973. At the end of one
year, we can assess our work to determine if we are pursuing a
worthwhile program, which ought to be continued,

MEMORANDUM FOR TIIE RECORD
SUBJECT: Security Awareness (Poster) Program
1. The Long-Range Planning Group and the Manage-
ment Advisory Group met on 22 March 1973. Having previously
discussed the advisability of a sophisticated poster
25X1A program, I submitted to the group for consideration Mr.
proposal of 5 March 1973. The details
e .or .1 in his memorandum to me, subject: Security
Awareness Program.
2. As a result of considerable discussion, the seven
members present arrived at a general concensus on the
following points:
a. It wns elt that the program as outlined
25X1A by which would require four years to
complete would be rather slow moving, somewhat
wasteful of talent, and may lose its effectiveness
over such a long period of time. Instead, it was
felt that a suitable poster should be placed on the
various Agency bulletin boards with a "take away"
box under it which would contain a supply of similar
posters.
b. It was felt that posters should be changed on
a monthly basis.
c. Posters should be approved by a committee
before being used.
d. It was generally agreed that in order to
achieve a degree of participation in the program
it would be advisable to provide a telephone number

so that employees could answer a solicitation
for ideas to be incorporated in future posters.
e. Finally, the entire program should. be
reassessed after a six month's period.
3. I advised the group that I would submit their
thoughts to the DD/PTOS for consideration in the proposed
poster program.
