GOVT 482 Counterintelligence Test 1

Manipulation, disinformation, & falsifying of evidence would be counted as what time of operation?

Deception Operations designed to conceal ones disposition, capabilities, and intentions

Contrast the goals of law enforcement with the goals of counter intelligence.

Law enforcement seeks to arrest a target to serve justice, while intelligence seeks to unravel the enemies operations and may choose not to apprehend an enemy spy.

What was the lesson of the Ahmed Ghailani trial in New York City in 2010?

Information gathered covertly cannot be used in court. That is why intelligence targets should not be tried in civilian courts.

Be able to define a live drop.

People are recruited to receive letters or packages to be forwarded elsewhere. Frequent dummy letters are sent to maintain security.

Be able to identify activities and efforts to deceive an enemy.

Manipulation, disinformation, & falsifying of evidence can be used as well as distortion of friendly activities. Such as using false radio signals, inflatable dummies, or spreading false information through news outlets.

Case officers require at least 3 identities; William Martin had 41 pieces of identifying information.

Speed of movement and diminishing the enemy's capability of moving against friendly forces.

Be able to define Deception.

Deception is an operation designed to conceal our dispositions, capabilities and intentions.

Be able to cite an examples of civilian counter intelligence operations.

Distribution of ration cards, work permits, travel permits.

Distinguish between value, threat, vulnerability, & countermeasures.

-Value: The worth of information.
-Threat: entities that target friendly assets.
-Vulnerability: Organizational weaknesses.
-Countermeasures: Steps taken to minimize vulnerabilities.

Understand shortcomings of the polygraph.
For which of these people ~ sociopath, professional intelligence officer, victim of torture ~ would be polygraph be lease reliable?

A polygraph can "catch" innocent people and prevent them from having jobs. A sociopath could easily pass a test because he feels no guilt and would not be nervous during the test.

Be able to explain key aspects of operations security (OPSEC).

identify critical information, analyze threats and vulnerabilities and manage the risk.

Know the guidelines for use of the polygraph including rehearsing of questions.

Questions are asked that are informal and easy for the purpose of creating a baseline. Interspersed among that are questions that will trip up people who are lying such as "are you a Russian Spy?" Rehearsing questions before they are asked can help an answer that is truthful to appear as truthful even if it is shocking.

What must be done if interrogating a person in his home or office?

Place a guard at the door, move furniture in such a way as to be in a commanding location. Make the person being interrogated feel isolated.
