  • 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.

  • The Security Lexicon from Westphalia to the Present a Cautionary Tale
    THE SECURITY LEXICON FROM WESTPHALIA TO THE PRESENT A CAUTIONARY TALE MAX G. MANWARING, PH.D. A new and dangerous dynamic is at work around the world today. That new dynamic involves the migration of some of the monopoly of political power (i.e., the authoritative allocation of values in a society) from the traditional nation-state to unconventional actors such as the Islamic State (ISIS), transnational criminal organizations, Leninist-Maoist insurgents, tribal militias, pri- vate armies, enforcer gangs and other modern mercenaries. These actors conduct their own political-psychological type of war against various state and other non-state adversaries. These violent politicized non-state actors are being ignored; or, alternatively, are being considered too hard to deal with. That misunderstanding must inevitably result in an epochal transition from traditional Western nation-state systems and their liberal democratic values to something else dependent on the values—good, bad, or non-existent—of the winner.1 To help civilian and military leaders, policy-makers, opinion-makers, and anyone else who might have the responsibility for dealing with modern conflict come to grips analytically with the security dilemma and other realities of the 21st century political-psychological environment, this paper seeks to do three things. In Part One, we outline a bit of essential history that takes us from the Westphalian Peace Treaty of 1648 to the present. In that context, we briefly consider a con- temporary example of the traditional military-centric approach to national and international security that is still alive and well. That is, Chinese military activity in the South China Sea.

  • National Security and Constitutional Rights in Korea
    National Security and Constitutional Rights in Korea - National Security Law, Past and Present Park Won Soon, Human Rights Lawyer Chair, Executive Committee, PSPD Director, Beautiful Foundation As of 25 August, of the 99 political prisoners in detention, 54 were detained on charges under the National Security Law. Of these, the majority were arrested under Article 7, which punishes membership of organizations deemed to "benefit the enemy", improving relations with North Korea prompted debate on reform of the National Security Law. President Kim Dae-Jung apparently encouraged by his award of the Nobel Peace Prize, announced his support for revisions to the National Security Law, but opposition to reform in the National Assembly from both the GNP and the ULD prevented significant revisions. (Amnesty International Report 2001) 1. Introduction De Facto Constitution - The National Security Law The National Security Law (NSL) in Korea has been called as a de facto constitution. It meas the NSL was under no other laws including the Constitution. Even though it is inferior to the Constitution namely, no legal enforcement agencies and the court could not challenge unconstitutionality of the law in reality. Korean peninsula has been one of the powder magazine where small incident could lead to big armed conflict. As a matter of fact, in 1950, there broke out Korean war in which over 3 million people were killed. Since then, national security has been regarded as the most important and senstive agenda among Korean people. Basic freedom and human rights enshrined in the Constitution has been sacrificed in the name of national security.

The economy has returned to growth, while rating agencies’ elevation of Portuguese debt to investment grade will cut the cost of capital to finance further economic expansion. Effective Portuguese diplomacy has enabled Lisbon to punch above its weight in EU and global affairs. Portugal’s highly professional armed forces are looking forward to gaining new capabilities and to making a greater contribution to European, African, and Asian security through more deployments as Portugal makes the investments necessary to fulfill its Wales pledge to NATO. Coupled with Portugal’s avowed Atlantic orientation, all of these factors paint a picture of opportunity for

Horvath link: http://wikileaks.org/file/us-intel-wikileaks.pdf pages: 32 Description By Julian Assange ([email protected]) This document is a classifed (SECRET/NOFORN) 32 page U.S. counterintelligence investigation into WikiLeaks. “The possibility that current employees or moles within DoD or elsewhere in the U.S. government are providing sensitive or classified information to Wikileaks.org cannot be ruled out”. It concocts a plan to fatally marginalize the organization. Since WikiLeaks uses “trust as a center of gravity by protecting the anonymity and identity of the insiders, leakers or whisteblowers”, the report recommends “The identification, exposure, termination of employment, criminal prosecution, legal action against current or former insiders, leakers, or whistlblowers could potentially damage or destroy this center of gravity and deter others considering similar actions from using the Wikileaks.org Web site”. [As two years have passed since the date of the report, with no WikiLeaks’ source exposed, it appears that this plan was ineffective]. As an odd justificaton for the plan, the report claims that “Several foreign countries including China, Israel, North Kora, Russia, Vietnam, and Zimbabwe have denounced or blocked access to the Wikileaks.org website”.
