With almost 3.4 million subscribers, the 2022 edition of the National High School Exam (Enem) will have a record security scheme. More than 70 thousand professionals from federal and state agencies will monitor occurrences and prevent leaks under the coordination of the Ministry of Justice and Public Security (MJSP).
The work will be supervised by the Ministry’s Integrated Center for National Command and Control, in Brasília. In addition to acting during the application of tests, to avoid glues and leaks, the agents will work on the logistics that precede the event, monitoring the departure of tests from the print shop, the escort of pouches, distribution routes and storage locations.
The integrated action involves the following bodies: National Institute of Educational Studies and Research Anísio Teixeira (Inep), Federal Police (PF), Federal Highway Police (PRF), Ministry of Defense (MD), Brazilian Post and Telegraph Company (ECT) , Secretaries of Public Security – Military and Civil Police, Fire Department, Civil Defense and Mobile Emergency Service (Samu) – Municipal Guards, energy, water and telephone concessionaires and the test applicator consortium.
Each body will act within its legal attribution. The Secretariat of Integrated Operations (Seopi), linked to the Ministry of Justice and Public Security, will be responsible for promoting the integration of institutions participating in national or regional operations. In the states, the monitoring of Operation Enem 2022 will be carried out by the State Integrated Command and Control Centers (CICCEs) or similar.
