Counterintelligence Theory and Practice
Abstract
In this thoroughly updated and revised edition of Counterintelligence Theory and Practice, Hank Prunckun provides all of the elements required for a successful counterintelligence operation from both an academic and a practitioner’s point of view. It offers an advanced understanding of the underlying theory that supports the art and science of the craft, and examines the challenges and practicalities of defensive and offensive counterintelligence. Designed for students in intelligence studies as well as professional training classes, this text explores issues related to national security, military, law enforcement, and corporate as well as private affairs.

“Distinctively and in parallel, intelligence agencies devote considerable resources to sustaining the 'wilderness of mirrors' in espionage and counterespionage efforts (Martin, 2018;Prunckun, 2019).”

In the citing paper
“Deception is typically from the counterintelligence playbook to create a 'paradox of fiction' (Prunckun, 2019: 45) in which security agencies leverage what could be believed to be factual in order to gain decision advantage.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
