The John Walker Case: Implications and Lessons Learned for Today’s Challenges

Maximum Number of Students: 30 Course Number: 105

Course Length: 1 day

John Walker, along with his best friend Jerry Whitworth, his brother Arthur, and his son Michael were all arrested for espionage in May 1985. He and eventually his network had spied for the KGB since December 1967. CI Centre Professor former KGB Major General Oleg Kalugin supervised this case for the Soviet KGB when it began and when it ended. After his arrest, John Walker was brought to the Baltimore Field Office of the FBI where CI Centre Professor David Major was the CI Supervisor and Program Manager. The arrest of the Walker espionage ring resonated within the National Security Community and in the White House. It led directly to the appointment of David Major as the first Director of Counterintelligence on the National Security Council staff. The end result was a series of presidential policy decisions to break the back of Soviet/Russian intelligence in the United States that had a positive impact on mitigating some of the damage done by the Robert P. Hanssen espionage case. The lessons of these events and their legacy for today’s counterintelligence issues will be discussed in this intensive course.

Course Length: 5 days

Our flagship CI course. This course focuses on the evolution of the legal, organizational and ethical aspects of counterintelligence and security in the past 100 years. It is designed to increase the number of personnel who have a broad and current understanding of the development of the counterintelligence discipline in the US. We highlight the historical consequences of ignoring counterintelligence and the strategic importance of a robust national CI program. We examine the period from 1916-1954, including intelligence collection by and the response to the German IIIB during WWI by enacting the US espionage law, and Japanese and Nazi espionage before and during WWII. A comprehensive examination is made of the nexus between communism and Soviet espionage during the period the USSR was our “ally.” We examine in-depth a number of the 235 spies exposed by VENONA, highlighting the deep penetrations of the OSS, the impact on CIA/FBI relationships and the political and government response and lack of response to the truth of espionage. We examine the ethical implications of doing it “wrong” with a detailed discussion of the Angleton era and its impact on the CIA covering the period 1954 to 1974. A detailed analytical case study of the widely held myth of “The False Defector” and asset validation is included to challenge the student’s ability to evaluate the key concept that CI is the “art of the probable, not the art of the possible.” The course includes a detailed examination of the CIA’s actions in the Ames case and a discussion of CI today.

Double Agentry: Offensive Counterintelligence Operations Maximum Number of Students: 30 Course Number: 502

Course Length: 5 days

Building on the foundation forged in our 501 Course, this course primarily focuses on counterintelligence events that changed history and the value and need to conduct offensive double-agent operations. This is a deliberate effort to facilitate the course participant’s ability to understand and overcome institutional cultural opposition to double agentry. The students participate in a day-long case study of the Oleg Penkovsky CIA/MI6 operation. They are exposed to two conflicting analyses of Penkovsky’s bona fides in consecutive nightly readings and the impact such assessments can have on national policy. This culminates in a detailed case study in which the students draw conclusions on the validity of the intelligence produced via this operation. The students study two successful double operations, and draw conclusions concerning the value of each to the USIC. The course includes a detailed examination of the methods used by foreign security and counterintelligence services to assess and conduct recruitment operations against US Government personnel assigned overseas. A day long lecture is presented to illustrate the inter-connectivity and complexity of connecting and analyzing a series of events including espionage cases, penetrations of intelligence services and the conduct of offensive double agentry.

We study legal principles and protection of sources and methods during the conduct of a counterespionage investigation. You will learn about the complexities of investigating when not only several US intelligence agencies are involved, but when foreign CI and intelligence services must become involved for successful resolution. We study the investigative cycle, illustrating it with many different case studies, not all of which were neutralized through prosecution, driving home the fact that arrest and prosecution is but one method of neutralizing a threat. The seminar also examines the complexity of conducting espionage overseas and who the US is forced to deal with in these types of cases. The last two days of the course focus on the complexities of the Hanssen case and includes a Hanssen SpyDrive.

We study legal principles and protection of sources and methods during the conduct of a counterespionage investigation. You will learn about the complexities of investigating when not only several US intelligence agencies are involved, but when foreign CI and intelligence services must become involved for successful resolution. We study the investigative cycle, illustrating it with many different case studies, not all of which were neutralized through prosecution, driving home the fact that arrest and prosecution is but one method of neutralizing a threat. The three-day version of this seminar does not include a detailed discussion of the Hanssen case or the Hanssen SpyDrive.

Course Length: 5 days

This is the CI Centre's flagship counterterrorism course. It is designed specifically for the national security and defense communities—intelligence, military, homeland security, and law enforcement—to understand the evolution of terrorist threats and America’s counterterrorist responses over the past 100 years.

As in all wars and conflicts, the doctrines of the enemy must be studied to defeat them. The core doctrine of terrorist organizations has changed over the past 40 years from being secular-based to predominately sectarian-based. This course focuses on the threat doctrines of violent extremist groups dominating today’s national security and military efforts. Attendees will gain a solid understanding of key concepts of extremists’ doctrines, ideology, texts, leaders, goals, history, and definitions of terms. A detailed background of the extremists’ radicalization process and its warning signs are discussed in-depth, including a first-hand look at the actual path towards extremism. The motivations, mindsets, and methodologies of suicide bombers and the phenomenon of suicide operations are included in the course.

The course examines the successful and unsuccessful counterterrorism tactics to identify, penetrate, and disrupt terrorism. Legal, organizational, and ethical aspects of counterterrorism are integral discussion topics in this robust CT course. This powerful course is taught by the nation's leading experts on this topic. No other course is more important and needed during this time of ever present terrorist threats, both here in our homeland and overseas.

Counterintelligence Asset Validation

Maximum Number of Students: 30 Course Number: 512

Course Length: 5 days

Reliable, timely, and meaningful human intelligence (also know as human assets/ sources/ informants) are a key element of the national security of the United States. Continued validation of these human assets is critical to the successful conduct of our national counterintelligence programs essential to protection of our national defense. This seminar provides unique procedures, techniques, and critical thought processes to accomplish this task. The course covers planning for operational testing, conducting and evaluating operational testing, and general validation concepts. The course provides insights into the psychology of deception through verbal, non-verbal and written communication, and the polygraph, with emphasis throughout on culture differences. Expert legal opinions and case examples are provided regarding asset validation. The course explores double agent methodology by examining the theory of double agentry, which is enhanced by a practical exercise utilizing a student voting computer based program that forces the students to make independent decisions in a group environment. This facilitates independent thought, analysis, and explanation of decision making by the students. The students are exposed to two conflicting analyses of a major US human source whose bona fides were questioned and the impact such decisions can have on national policy. This culminates in a detailed case study of the operation in which the students draw conclusions on the validity of the intelligence produced via this operation. This course provided essential practical knowledge and exploitable information for all individuals conducting, supporting, or consuming foreign intelligence, counterintelligence, counter narcotic, counterterrorist operations or information.
