MAG-02: MAG Security Assessment

Find where your group is exposed, see it the way a watcher would, and decide what to harden first.

Course Overview, One Page

A single printable page covering what MAG-02 teaches, the 5 lessons, what you need before starting, and the doctrinal sources behind the method. Useful for deciding whether the course is for you, or for handing to somebody in your group who is weighing it up.

Why This Course

BLUF: SEC-02 taught your members what the group shows. SEC-03 taught them how a watcher would organize to collect it. Neither tells your group where it is most exposed right now, or what to fix first. This course turns the two into an assessment your security lead can run on a schedule, and ends with a posture rating and a plan leadership can act on.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to:

  • Scope and run a security assessment of your group, and protect what it finds
  • Find the group profiles that form between member households, and score every group exposure
  • Map where a watcher would sit, which routes they would use, and what they would be trying to learn
  • Use the weaknesses of a surveillance team as levers when you choose sites and set routines
  • Rate your group’s posture by domain and give leadership a plan it can act on

Lessons 01–05

Lesson 01

Scoping the Group Assessment

Set up the cell, the four domains, the group CIL and threat list, and the handling rules that protect a map of the group’s weak points.

Lesson 02

The Group Exposure Audit

Run SEC-02’s cycle across the group: aggregate household inputs into profiles, test against threats and channels, and score the Group Exposure Register.

Lesson 03

Through the Watcher’s Eyes

Use SEC-03 to map how each exposure would be collected: objectives, fixed posts, mobile routes, technical collection, and a baseline of normal.

Lesson 04

Making the Watcher’s Job Hard

Turn repetition, choke points, and reaction to the unexpected into levers, apply SEC-02’s countermeasures, and set up anomaly reporting.

Lesson 05

Capstone: The Group Security Assessment

Rate posture by domain, write the report, brief leadership, tie measures to PREP-CON, set the re-assessment cycle, and pass the final assessment.
