How Does Information Become Classified?

Information is classified based on how much damage the material would do to National Security. There are technically only 4 levels of classification: Unclassified, Classified, Secret, and Top Secret, but there are other descriptions that can be attached to those classifications to further instruct how to handle those materials. As an example SBU refers to something that is Sensitive but Unclassified. There are also things called “Read Ons” where you may have the correct clearance to handle a particular level of classified material but you need to be “read on” to some special instructions that are specific to that document, building, room, etc.

Simple Sabotage

In 1944, the CIA wrote a handbook on how to sabotage (enemy) organizations from the inside

The purpose of this paper is to characterize simple sabotage, to outline its possible effects, and to present suggestions for inciting and executing it.

Sabotage varies from highly technical coup de main acts that require detailed planning and the use of specially-trained operatives, to innumerable simple acts which the ordinary individual citizen-saboteur can perform. This paper is primarily concerned with the latter type. Simple sabotage does not require specially prepared tools or equipment; it is executed by an ordinary citizen who may or may not act individually and without the necessity for active connection with an organized group; and it is carried out in such a way as to involve a minimum danger of injury, detection, and reprisal.
