Study Notes

Threat Awareness Reporting Program (TARP)

Personnel failing to report concerns related to counterintelligence (CI) activities may face disciplinary action as per DoD Directive 5240.06.
Cyber vulnerabilities affecting DoD systems encompass a variety of concerns including software weaknesses and operational gaps.
DoD personnel suspecting a coworker of espionage must report such suspicions directly to their Counterintelligence (CI) or Security Office.
Under DoDD 5240.06, all foreign intelligence contacts, activities, indicators, and behaviors are reportable; there are no exemptions.
Potential Espionage Indicators (PEIs) characterize behaviors or circumstances that signal possible espionage, including recruitment attempts by foreign entities.
A Foreign Intelligence Entity (FIE) is defined as any foreign organization or individual conducting intelligence activities that threaten U.S. interests, encompassing a broad range of actors including state and non-state entities.
Counterintelligence, as outlined in the National Security Act of 1947, covers actions to protect against espionage, sabotage, and other forms of intelligence threats posed by foreign adversaries.
If solicited for classified information, individuals should take comprehensive precautionary actions including reporting and avoiding engagement.
Foreign Intelligence Entities frequently utilize the Internet and social networking platforms to collect sensitive information.
Elicitation techniques are a common practice employed by Foreign Intelligence Entities to extract sensitive data from individuals with access to classified information.
Collection methods employed by Foreign Intelligence Entities focus on extracting information regarding critical technologies from cleared defense contractors.
Anomalies in behavior do not include attempts by foreign diplomats to defect, as such actions are considered more typical than anomalous.
