After the [[First Battle of Harvest|first engagements]] on [[Harvest]], [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI Section II]] kept the Covenant invasion secret from the general population. This encompassed the denizens of Circinius IV (including the staff and cadets of the [[Corbulo Academy of Military Science]]) in what was likely the first application of the recently introduced [[WINTER CONTINGENCY]]. However, the academy's superintendent, [[Black|General Black]], was informed. As preparation for a possible attack, Black discreetly increased the readiness of the [[UNSC Marine Corps|UNSC Marine]] garrison posted in the academy and authorized limited communications blackouts under the guise of routine maintenance procedures.  Unfortunately, these preparations would prove ineffective against the Covenant.
