The disclosure of information in public media is something that must be very clear and well regulated, especially when this information is related to an investigation, so that unauthorized information is protected and kept from the general public. However, when the non-authorization of this information is not clearly clear, it is necessary for a security manager to forward the report indicating the incident to the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Defense for Intelligence. This is because the undersecretary is the agent responsible for determining which component has investigative primacy when the responsibility for an investigation into an unauthorized disclosure by the public media is not clear.
