Independently research an element of counterintelligence in the cyber domain. Search criteria to help you might include: cyber, intelligence, insider threat, denial, foreign intelligence, chinese, russian, DISA, systems, computer, etc.

Wikileaks is a very interesting problem and, like many other topics, would be a good topic. You are welcome to share ideas on topics before you begin.

Please locate a case of actual use of cyber systems or on-going threats and research that case. Provide a 350 word summary of the case, the role of counterintelligence in detecting and undoing the threat, and the role of analysis in identifying and addressing the problem. Please choose a specific case, nothing general or abstract (you will not be able to draft a summary).
