UNIT website

The UNIT website was the official website of UNIT. It contained pages on the history of the organisation, classified resources, and a visual interface control of many worldwide weapons arsenals.

Mickey Smith accessed the secure section of the website, with the password of "buffalo", to fire a missile at 10 Downing Street to stop the Slitheen from destroying planet Earth. (TV: World War Three)

Shortly before the Sycorax invasion of Earth, Mickey accessed the website again and saw the military was tracking the Sycorax spaceship headed for Earth. Later, Mickey and Rose Tyler watched a video message from the Sycorax on the website. Rose noticed the TARDIS wasn't translating their Sycoraxic speech like it usually did for alien languages.

Behind the scenes
The BBC Web Team created a real-life version of the in-universe UNIT website, which is available at unit.org.uk. This website includes six sections: UNIT history, press releases, conferences, publications, news and one secure section, an ops board, which contains information about past UNIT operations and reports.

Secure ops board
The password used to access the secure ops board section is "badwolf", all lower case, no spaces, no quote marks.

The Ops Board section included operational reports. The central figures included Major Jenny Maguire, taciturn commanding officer and someone with a past with the Doctor (he annoyed her), and Staff Sergeant Annie Frederick, who handled press relations.

The following reports where named but not completed
 * Project Rooftop
 * Guinevere One introduced Major Blake as UNIT reacted to the missing satellite and the Sycorax debate, with Blake snarking that he bet Jones would use it as an excuse to visit Tower Ops. Project Rooftop had the aftermath: mass looting had broken out because of the shattered windows but was brought down by the police; UNIT deactivated Blackberry devices across the UK while they tried to get their press statement straight, made worse by only inexperienced junior staff being present at Fleet Street during the holidays; there was a decision to continue covering up UNIT's previous forty years and act like the Sycorax were a surprise. Jones ordered that UNIT claim the ship blew up of its own accord and not to mention Torchwood's laser weapon, while UNIT wondered what it was. Jones also requested to speak at Major Blake's funeral.

 * Briefing: Rose Tyler revealed that UNIT were aware she was the current companion and had compiled a dossier on her. As a result, they discovered Mickey Smith's whoisdoctorwho.co.uk website and were distraught and surprised to discover how much he knew; their security codes were quickly changed. Sgt Catherine Petts, dossier compiler, reported that Pete Tyler's death "appear[s] to be a temporal event. I've had a look through, and it even appears fleetingly on our files (1987/11-Be3a)", indicating UNIT had seen Reaper attacks before.
 * Object Auctioned
 * Aftermath of Number Ten
 * Operation Mannequin revealed there was disruption of communications during the Nestene's move (speculated to be protecting itself from radio wave attacks) and that as few cameras were working, little footage was taken of the Autons. Four hundred thirty people died and nearly a thousand were injured. UNIT's cover story was that there was a gas explosion and that due to faulty plastic, some shop dummies contorted in heat and were believed to "move" (Frederick admitted few people would swallow this); to provide disinformation, secret operatives bombarded radio stations with obviously fake stories of talking dummies and waxworks attacking (and others claiming they saw nothing). (TV: Rose)
 * Contact: London had UNIT irritated by the government's "useless" response, as if they didn't want to contain the situation; they sent one of their expert EVA teams from Geneva to "show willing". Shows a clearer picture of the Ninth Doctor pass made by Number 10. (TV: Aliens of London) When the Ninth Doctor arrived, Maguire and Frederick were annoyed. The aftermath of Number Ten showed UNIT shellshocked by the loss of their team and the scale of the Slitheen attack, and Maguire called in for a meeting at the temporary offices of the PM in Westminster. Maguire referred to Harriet Jones as "the acting PM's some woman I've never heard of with my mother's hair-do". (TV: Aliens of London / World War Three)
 * Operation Plainsong
 * Clearsight Project
 * The Fourth Reich
 * Skaniska Debrief
 * Rowon Blathe Plan
 * Guatemala "big locust" Problem
 * MCBDA Outbreak
