� What is OPSEC?
OPSEC is the process of identifying, assessing, and protecting critical information from exploitation. It’s not just tools—it’s mindset, discipline, and lifestyle.
📌 Core OPSEC Principles
- Don't overshare (online or offline)
- Segregate identities: use alias, burner emails, and different devices
- Only connect to trusted networks; avoid public Wi-Fi or use secure VPNs
- Be invisible digitally—turn off location, permissions, and telemetry

📦 Compartmentalization Techniques
