The potentially ubiquitous presence of UAP defines the national security implications of those anomalies, which range from operational hazards and threats to technological and intelligence surprise to adversaries strategic miscalculations. It is imperative that DoD provide UAP incident, incursion, and engagement-as defined in paragraph 3.8.-reporting, data, and material for the Department's detection and mitigation of potential threats; exploitation of advanced technologies; and informing policymaker and warfighter decisions. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS) sets the appropriate Chairman's Critical Information Requirement (CCIR) criteria and ensures each CCMD and Service is in receipt of the Reporting Matrix. Incursions, incidents, and engagements that meet CCIR criteria are reported in accordance with CJCS and COD reporting requirements.
