TOTAL UNHANDLED ATTACKS AND ATTACKERS (GDS)
- Ref:
Advice updated RE GUARD STAT
- Advice
27 March 72 COUNTER ATTACK TACTICS
- Advice
28 March 72 INTELLIGENCE PRINCIPLES
This
is a guard stat with 0 at the top.
This
stat is counted:
1
point for every attacker
Plus:
1
point if the attack is local
2
points if the attack is regional
4
points if the attack is national
The
points remain on the stat until handled.
The
category of attacks are listed below:
1.
TM infringement, each TM Infringement counted as
per the TM Infringers handled stat of Invest. (NOTE:
if a report is received of a possible TM Infringer,
this must be verfied as inactive within 4 weeks
or it gets counted on this stat as a TM Infringer
until verified as inactive or until handled.)
2.
External Influences - where an org is being influenced
by External Influences and this is not handled by
OSA. Also each External Influence who has not been
handled. This would include any actions done by
TM Infringers which affect the org or the field.
3.
A suit filed against a Church entity or individual.
4.
Any lost suit.
5.
A print media hit - a newspaper or magazine story
which is an attack.
6.
An attack on the TV by an individual eg. an entheta
source who has gotten on a TV talk show to forward
an attack, or on a radio show.
7.
A TV program that is an attack on the Church.
8.
Legislation proposed in any area that hinders our
operations in that area.
9.
Legislation passed in any area that hinders our
operations in that area.
10.
An entheta book published.
11.
Any legislative or governmental inquiry initiated
into the Church.
12.
Any Scientology activity closed down through opposition
actions.
13.
Government restrictions imposed upon the Church.
14.
A legal case not involving the Church but resulting
in a judgement that is an attack upon the Church.
15.
A civil suit filed on the Church.
16.
A civil judgement against the Church
17.
A deprogramming attempt on a Scientologist.
18.
A penal (criminal) complaint against a Church or
a staff member filed.
19.
A penal (criminal) complaint against a Church or
a staff member being acted on.
For
every attack, the attack goes on the stat with a
point value according to whether it is a local,
regional or national attack plus the attacker behind
the attack goes on as an additional point if not
already on the list.
When
the actual situation is HANDLED, by terminatedly
handling the attacker the points come off the stat
(one attacker may be behind a number of attacks
and when handled, the accumulated points for the
attacks originated from that person would all come
off the stat). The exception would be if an Attacker
is verified as being handled yet an outstanding
attack still exists in some form, that attack remains
on the list until handled (while the Attacker and
any handled attacks come off the stat).
Clearly,
the Attacker MUST be correctly isolated and named
before he can be handled and this stat goes up.
For
purposes of calculating the list of UATTACKS to
begin with, each DSA Invest Officer should list
out the major attacks connected to each of its current
attackers going back to the point when they started
attacking (in many cases this can be several years
or even a decade - for the initial calculation of
this stat it is not intended to get into a huge
administrative cycle and some approximation of attacks
based on existing file data may be necessary). Each
attack will have to be classified as to whether
it was a local, regional or national attack for
purposes of calculating the stat.
Each
DSA Invest Officer is to format their UATTACKS breakdown
by listing out the names of the attackers with the
attacks under each name, with the attack designated
as to whether it was a local, regional or national
attack. The attacker with the most attacks should
go at the top of the list. The purpose of this admin
system is to be able to see at a glance who we are
getting the most attacks from. If there is more
than one attacker behind an attack, then that attack
would be placed under the name of the major attacker
with the name of the second attacker in parenthesis
next to the attack so it is clear that the attack
would not come off the list until both attackers
are terminatedly handled. If the major attacker
gets terminatedly handled, the attack would then
be placed under the name of the second attacker.
If
there are attacks for which there are no known attackers,
these are placed at the end of the list until the
attackers behind them are known.
Following
is an example to illustrate this:
- 1)
JOE BLOGS = 1 POINT
- A)
LA TIMES ENTHETA ARTICLE 15 JAN 1980 - REGIONAL
= 2 POINTS
- B)
ENTHETA TV APPEARANCE 1 MAY 1982 - LOCAL = 1
POINT
- C)
ENTHETA BOOK "CULTS" 1984 (FRED FRAME
ALSO BEHIND IT) - DISTRIBUTED NATIONALLY = 4
POINTS
Subtotal
= 8 POINTS
- 2)
FRED FRAME = 1 POINT
- A)
ENTHETA LECTURE BOSTON UNIV 15 DEC 1983 - LOCAL
= 1 POINT
- B)
DEPRO ATTEMPT ON SUE SMITH MARCH 1984 - LOCAL
= 1 POINT
- C)
14 MEDIA ATTACKS 1976-1980 - ALL REGIONAL =
28 POINTS
Subtotal
= 31
- ATTACKS
WITH NO KNOWN ATTACKERS:
- A)
12 JUNE 1981 RAID ON MISSION - LOCAL = 1 point
- B)
JULY 1987 ATTEMPTED DEPROGRAMMING ON BILL SMITH
- LOCAL = 1 POINT
Subtotal
= 2
Etc.
Once
formatted as per the above, each DSA Invest Officer
should forward this breakdown to the OSA Cont where
a master Continental list of UATTACKS will also
be kept and updated. Each cont should have a break
down the UATTACKS by the DSA office responsible
for handling each attack/attacker.

NUMBER OF ATTACKS PREDICTED AND REPORTED PLUS WHOS
FOUND BY APPROVED ESTIMATE OR EVAL. (GDS)

PL 17 FEB 66 PUBLIC INVESTIGATION SECTION

28 March 72 INTELLIGENCE PRINCIPLES
This
stat is a weekly point value for the total number
of threatened attacks found by Defensive minus points
for any unpredicted attack or any attack which has
been predicted which then goes unhandled and occurs
despite the prediction. The stat is not accumulative.
The points are valued as follows:
Local
Attack - 1 point
Regional
Attack - 5 points
National
Attack - 10 points
An
unpredicted attack, or unhandled predicted attack
counts minus 10 times the above point value.
An
attack is defined per the definitions of an attack
as covered under the UATTACKS statistic.
A
bonus of 10 points is given for any Who found by
AVC approved evaluation and 5 points for a Who found
by approved estimate.
As
can be seen, for a prediction to be viable it must
be predicted in sufficient time to handle the matter
before it becomes a full blown attack and a handling
must be worked out and exchanged. The actual handling
may be executed by Support Unit, Staff Security
Sub-Unit, HCO, Dept of I&R, Legal Off or PR
Off, but the Defensive Unit is responsible for ensuring
that the prediction product is actually of quality
and exchangeable and utilized to beneficial result
of preventing the attack.
To
be counted, the prediction must be reported in writing
in some manner to the proper publics who should
know and/or act on the data (which reporting may
even be in the form of a stat breakdown if it is
clearly communicated in an exchangeable manner with
sufficient time, place, form and event to be understood.)
The
stat reflects external prediction as well as internal
prediction lines.
Internal
prediction activities must be aligned with the purpose
and functions of the Office of Special Affairs and
Departments of Special Affairs, which are external
facing units. It is the Staff Security Sub-Unit
that monitors the
prediction
and handling of matters which interface between
internal and external. The Department of Special
Affairs is interested in matters which if not handled
could result in external attacks, different from
security situations which are simply an HCO matter
- for example a PTS Type A situation which just
needs to get a standard handling (and would concern
us only if there are enemy connections or indicators
of something that will turn into an external attack
unless handled); whereas a PTS C found on lines
would of course be of interest to us. Valid Staff
Security matters include such things as detection
and handling of enemy infiltration; detection and
handling of the source of external influences preying
on the backs of orgs, etc.

be represented on the WHOATTACKSF stat, and which

NUMBER OF OUTSTANDING THREATS (GUARD STAT)
Ref:
Advice 16 Feb 82, NEW STAT
This
stat is a guard stat and is the total outstanding
threats. This would cover any predicted attack about
which information has been received. Once the threat
is handled it comes off the stat.
4.
NUMBER OF OUTSTANDING SECURITY THREATS (GUARD STAT)
Ref:
Advice 16 Feb 82, NEW STAT
This
stat measures the total amount of outstanding security
threats and risks and is an upside down graph with
zero at the top. A security situation for OSA/DSA
is as defined under the WHOATTACKS Found stat.
5.
NUMBER OF THREATS SEEN, THREATENED OR REPORTED
Ref:
Advice 16 Feb 82, NEW STAT
Per
the above listed advice, this stat shows the amount
of security threats that are found and reported.
A security situation for OSA/DSA is as defined under
the WHOATTACKS Found stat.
6.
NUMBER OF THREATS HANDLED
Per
the above listed advice, this stat shows the amount
of threats that are handled.
7.
COMPLAINTS ACTED UPON
Ref:
HCO PL 17 Feb 66 PUBLIC INVESTIGATION SECTION:
This
stats measures the number of complaints against
attackers that were acted upon by authorities.
This
is defined as the number of complaints filed with
anyone who is in a position of authority and acts
upon the complaint and thus impinges on an attacker
(e.g. judicial, governmental, civil, employer, landlord,
etc). Each time the complaint is acted on counts
1. Not cumulative.
8.
NUMBER OF OPPOSITION ADVANTAGES LOST
Ref:
HCO PL 16 Feb 69 Iss II, BATTLE TACTICS
This
stat measures the advantages of the opposition which
were lost due to the application of standard Invest
tech.
Total
number of advantages lost by the opposition that
week as a direct or indirect result of Invest actions.
See the above HCO PL for a description of the type
of activities that would count on this stat. Not
cumulative.
DEFINITIONS:
OPPOSITION:
A person or group actively opposing the Founder,
Scientology or the Church of Scientology or its
principles or activities and/or threatening its
survival or expansion.
9.
DOCUMENTED EVIDENCE OBTAINED AND USED
- Ref:
HCO PL 17 Feb 66 PUBLIC INVESTIGATION SECTION
- Advice
8 June 73 INTELLIGENCE, ITS ROLE
This
stat measures the evidence that has been obtained
against attackers and was put to use.
Documented
evidence obtained that indicates a crime or useable
evidence regarding a Who or an opposition terminal,
and is deemed useable by counsel, PR or Legal.
This
stat is counted on the basis of one point for each
evidence of a crime documented deemed useable by
counsel, PR or Legal.
A
5 point bonus is given for each piece of documented
evidence that is USED by counsel, PR or Legal. (If
the data contained in the documented evidence is
used, it can still be counted as a DOCEV, whether
the actual document is used or only the data.) Not
cumulative.
