•

(U)

Some intelligence can be shared; some cannot

•

The originators of the information will consider many
factors, including
(U)

•

Counterintelli{!ence:

What Services Did During Yle Campaign
and
What They Might Do Next
•

<U)

Foreign intelligence services targeted the campaigns. They:

Met with campaign contacts and staff
- Used human source networks for policy insights
- Exploited technology to get otherwise sensitive data
- Engaged in perception management to influence policy
• This exceeded traditional lobbying and public diplomacy

<U)

•

What you might expect now:
Probing personal questions
Endeavors to influence your social/ professional associates
Foreign government-sponsored trips abroad
Efforts to give you electronic media
Attempts at using third parties (groups or individuals) to influence
your thinking on a subject

Be Cautious-The reality of foreign intelligence operations is
more nuanced and subtle than you might expect

Some Precautions for Intelligence Threats
•

(U)

Be mindful of electronic interception

- Wireless devices are especially vulnerable
• Don't use them for sensitive conversations
•

•

Check for malicious software (Malware) before putting any
foreign media into your systems
(u)

- Malware can be put on wireless devices, USBs/ thumb drives,
and other media and then migrate to your agency system
(U) Watch what you say
-

You could inadvertently reveal USG capabilities, plans and intentions

You should not expect privacy in most foreign countries

•

(u)

•

- Hotel rooms and guest houses can be bugged
- Just because it's not obvious doesn't mean it isn't happening
(U) Contact NCIX or your local security office for tips on going abroad

•

(u)

Contact the FBI if you have any CI concerns
