Extractions: The National Foreign Intelligence Program Important responsibilities of the FBI's Baltimore Division are foreign counterintelligence and counter terrorism within the United States, economic espionage, and the ANSIR (Awareness of National Security Issues and Response) Program. Special Agents working these programs strive to detect and thwart the intelligence collection activities of foreign powers and their agents, and take aggressive measures to reduce the vulnerabilities of the United States to terrorism. Detection and Neutralization of Espionage The detection and neutralization of espionage is a principal responsibility of the FBI. The FBI's effort to detect and neutralize acts of espionage is dependent upon a robust and multifaceted counterintelligence effort, which includes information provided by the public sector. Counterterrorism The FBI is responsible for countering and investigating terrorist acts inside the United States and against U.S. interests abroad. The FBI defines terrorism as, "the unlawful use of force or violence against persons or property to intimidate or coerce a government, the civilian population, or any segments thereof, in furtherance of political or social objectives." Economic Espionage The Economic Espionage Act of 1996 made espionage a federal felony punishable by 15 years imprisonment for anyone who delivers or steals a trade secret on behalf of a foreign power. A second felony was created by the statute that makes the commercial theft of trade secrets in cases not involving foreign powers a criminal act. Under the statute, a trade secret can be defined as reasonably protected proprietary information that has independent value to its rightful possessor.

Extractions: Foreign Intelligence In the late 1940s, a special operations organisation was established within the Department of Defence. In 1952 this became the Australian Secret Service. This organisation was transferred from the Department of Defence to the Department of External Affairs in 1954, and became the Australian Secret Intelligence Service (ASIS). Although there is a public right of access to ASIS records after 30 years, like ASIO, ASIS generally only transfers records to the National Archives in response to requests from researchers. Few ASIS records are available for public access. All are held by the National Archives in Canberra, and most consist of innocuous items of correspondence or press clippings. These include Australian Secret Service - Records on Indonesia Australian Secret Service - Transfer from the Department of Defence to the Department of External Affairs Australian Secret Service - Records on Singapore and Malaya Report to the Minister for External Affairs by Brigadier Dudley W Clarke on the use of propaganda, economic warfare, infiltration of agents and other covert action to counter communist subversion in South East Asia ; and Australian Secret Intelligence Service (ASIS) - Records on Formosa (Taiwan) and the Chinese Nationalist offshore islands (Quemoy, Matsu)

Extractions: (ENN) Chicago, IL According to reports from the Defense Investigative Service, the Internet is one of the fastest growing areas of intelligence gathering by foreign governments and potential enemies of the United States and her allies. It is believed that foreign entities are making extensive use of the "net" in an attempt to both gather military and commercial information, as well as to spread disinformation. Particularly from Eastern European, Middle Eastern, and Far Eastern regions, numerous contacts have reportedly been made via the Internet to American defense contractors, software producers, and related industries...all asking for "proprietary or sensitive" information. Often these contacts suggest unsolicited offers to act as sales agents, consultants, or representatives in other countries. Others suggest that the writer is working for a "friendly" foreign government or military agency.

Extractions: WASHINGTON (CNN) The Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court is a secret court that oversees spying in the United States. It was set up to oversee implementation of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Judges on that court ruled that the Justice Department is misinterpreting its new powers under the U.S.A. Patriot Act that Congress passed last October. The court said the Justice Department's plan to allow prosecutors to become involved in intelligence investigations goes too far. The court also mandated that whenever an intelligence official wants to talk with a prosecutor, a Justice Department lawyer must participate to ensure nothing improper is said. LEGAL RESOURCES FindLaw Consumer Center Select a topic Bankruptcy Discrimination Divorce Estate Planning Landlord-Tenant Personal Injury Taxes The Justice Department has appealed the decision, saying the U.S.A. Patriot Act allows for a freer flow of communication between the intelligence side and the law enforcement/prosecution side.

Extractions: Members of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act , the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court is a star chamber that secretly issues warrants for US agencies to electronically surveil or physically search parties thought to be engaged in terrorism. The court operates in complete secrecy. We don't even know the identities of the eleven judges who make up the FISC. The only publicly-available information it releases is the number of warrants it grants per year. To date it has received over 13,000 requests, and it has granted every single one of them. In a recent, unprecedented action, the Court declared that the "Justice Department's plan to allow prosecutors to become involved in intelligence investigations goes too far" [ CNN ]. (It also revealed that the FBI has lied to it in 75 cases.) Ashcroft has appealed this stinging rebuke, thereby invoking the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review, whichas you might guessreviews the decisions of the FISC. The Review Court has never met before now, since no agency or department has had reason to object to the Court's rubberstamping ways. Although the judges on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court are a mystery, the three judges who comprise the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review have been revealed. In the
