Surveillance and Surveillance Detection: A CIA Insider's Guide

Have you ever thought you were being followed or watched? Have you ever needed to follow or observe someone and not be seen?

In  the world of espionage, surveillance and surveillance detection are a  way of life. It is the job of every CIA operations officer to make sure  he or she is not under surveillance—that is, being followed to the  commission of an “operational act.” It is also the job of every CIA  operations officer to surveil his own targets, whether they are  terrorists or terrorist suspects, foreign intelligence officers, hostile  actors, or even sometimes his own agents for vetting purposes.  

In  everyday life, many people from all walks of life need to know how to  perform similar operations. Whether avoiding a stalker, checking up on  an unfaithful partner, or just securing one’s own privacy, a working  knowledge of modern surveillance and surveillance detection techniques  is a critical skill to possess. And there is nobody better to teach that  skill than someone trained by the CIA.

From former CIA counterterrorism officer John C. Kiriakou, Surveillance and Surveillance Detection: A CIA Insider's Guide takes you through the CIA's surveillance and surveillance detection  program. It will teach you to apply CIA surveillance techniques to your  own everyday life. You’ll learn how to stay safe, to ensure your  privacy, and to keep the honest people honest—the CIA way.
