Careers in United States Intelligence By: Patrick Shea Peer Advisor; Department of Political Science For those interested in serving their country in a setting other than the military, the intelligence community can be an exciting and rewarding field. The United States has 16 different intelligence branches that provide a variety of services to the federal government. General Advice Work in the intelligence community requires a security clearance, this comes with many stipulations. Security clearances take up to eight months to process, because of this intelligence internships have earlier deadlines that usual. The agency you are interested in should have an application deadline posted. It should be sometime in the fall (late October/November) General Advice cont. The security clearance process includes a background check and polygraph, keep this in mind if/when: Meeting/communicating with foreign nationals Using/purchasing/selling illegal narcotics (often will disqualify a candidate ) Using/purchasing/selling fake IDs (often will disqualify a candidate) Using Facebook/twitter/instagram/etc. General Advice cont. The minimum GPA requirement for a majority of the agencies is a 3.0, however due to the high demand for these positions candidates with below a 3.5 are often not considered. When giving examples of classes, focus on the skills learned and how you could apply them to new situations rather than the actual subject matter learned. Language skills are always preferred, even a basic understanding can help you over a candidate with no skill. Certain languages are more highly sought after than others; Russian, Arabic, Mandarin, Pashtun, Farsi Central Intelligence Agency The CIA is by far the most well know intelligence agency in the United States. It was established in 1947 by the National Security Act. The mission of the CIA defined by the CIA website is Collecting intelligence through human sources and by other appropriate means. Correlating and evaluating intelligence related to the national security and providing appropriate dissemination of such intelligence.

    National Insider Threat Task Force Mission Fact Sheet

    NATIONAL INSIDER THREAT TASK FORCE MISSION FACT SHEET _________________________________ Why was the NITTF established? The National Insider Threat Task Force (NITTF) was established after the WikiLeaks release of thousands of classified documents through the global media and internet. Its mission is to deter, detect, and mitigate actions by employees who may represent a threat to national security by developing a national insider threat program with supporting policy, standards, guidance, and training. Who runs the task force, and which agencies are involved? Under Executive Order (E.O.) 13587, the NITTF is co-chaired by the U.S. Attorney General and the Director of National Intelligence. They, in turn, designated the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and the National Counterintelligence Executive to co-direct the daily activities of the NITTF. The NITTF comprises employees and contractors from a variety of federal departments and agencies (D/A), and its work impacts more than 99 federal D/As that handle classified material. Currently, the following D/As have representatives on the NITTF: FBI, National Counterintelligence and Security Center (NCSC), Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), and Transportation Security Administration. The NITTF responds directly to the Senior Information Sharing and Safeguarding Steering Committee, which was also established under E.O. 13587. The steering committee comprises representatives from largely Intelligence Community agencies with extensive access to classified networks and materials, including the Departments of State, Energy, Justice, Defense, and Homeland Security, CIA, FBI, Office of the Director of National Intelligence, NCSC, National Security Agency, DIA, the Program Manager—Information Sharing Environment, Office of Management and Budget, the National Security Council Staff, and the Information Security Oversight Office.

  • Wikileaks and the Institutional Framework for National Security Disclosures

    Wikileaks and the Institutional Framework for National Security Disclosures

    THE YALE LAW JOURNAL PATRICIA L. BELLIA WikiLeaks and the Institutional Framework for National Security Disclosures ABSTRACT. WikiLeaks' successive disclosures of classified U.S. documents throughout 2010 and 2011 invite comparison to publishers' decisions forty years ago to release portions of the Pentagon Papers, the classified analytic history of U.S. policy in Vietnam. The analogy is a powerful weapon for WikiLeaks' defenders. The Supreme Court's decision in the Pentagon Papers case signaled that the task of weighing whether to publicly disclose leaked national security information would fall to publishers, not the executive or the courts, at least in the absence of an exceedingly grave threat of harm. The lessons of the PentagonPapers case for WikiLeaks, however, are more complicated than they may first appear. The Court's per curiam opinion masks areas of substantial disagreement as well as a number of shared assumptions among the Court's members. Specifically, the Pentagon Papers case reflects an institutional framework for downstream disclosure of leaked national security information, under which publishers within the reach of U.S. law would weigh the potential harms and benefits of disclosure against the backdrop of potential criminal penalties and recognized journalistic norms. The WikiLeaks disclosures show the instability of this framework by revealing new challenges for controlling the downstream disclosure of leaked information and the corresponding likelihood of "unintermediated" disclosure by an insider; the risks of non-media intermediaries attempting to curtail such disclosures, in response to government pressure or otherwise; and the pressing need to prevent and respond to leaks at the source.

  • Offensive Capabilities

    Offensive Capabilities

    GCHQ and UK Mass Surveillance Chapter 5 5 Beyond signals intelligence: Offensive capabilities 5.1 Introduction Documents released by German magazine Der Spiegel provide a much richer picture of the offensive activities of the NSA and its allies, including the UK’s GCHQ.i The global surveillance infrastructure and hacking tools described in the previous chapters are not only used for obtaining information to be fed into intelligence reports and tracking terrorists. The agencies are also developing cyber-warfare capabilities, with the NSA taking the lead within the US armed forces. This militarisation of the internet saw U.S. intelligence services carried out 231 offensive cyber-operations in 2011ii. The UK's National Strategic Defence and Security Review from 2010 made hostile attacks upon UK cyberspace a major priorityiii. It is fair to assume that many countries are following suit and building cyber-warfare capabilities. Der Spiegel terms the development of these aggressive hacking tools as Digital Weapons. In their view D weapons which should join the ABC (Atomic, Biological and Chemical) weapons of the 20th century because of their indiscriminate nature. Here lies a fundamental problem. The modern world with connected global communications networks means that non-state actors such as civilians and businesses are now affected by the agencies’ activities much more frequently than before. The internet is used by everyone – cyberspace is mainly a civilian space – and the opportunity for collateral damage is huge. The papers leaked to Der Spiegel appear to show that signal agencies have little regard for the security and wellbeing of anyone who gets caught in the path of their operations.
