SpyVirginia

This course takes attendees through a visual presentation of the known and hidden spy and operational sites used by foreign intelligence services operating in Virginia. Highlighted in this entertaining presentation is the fact that some of the most damaging spies in US history lived and/or conducted espionage activity in Northern Virginia. Also covered is the espionage activity in other key areas such as Norfolk, Virginia.

Virginia is a target-rich environment for foreign intelligence officers intent on collecting information, plans and technology. Combined with government agencies like the CIA and NRO, the Pentagon and military bases, government contractors, the schools which attract foreign students from all over the world, and the growing high-tech corridors, Virginia is a prime target today for any foreign intelligence service.

The goal of the one-day SpyVirginia course is to enhance the awareness of this foreign intelligence threat and recognize and defend against these dangers.

Through innovative multimedia techniques, instructors show the audience where spy cases and events actually took place in Virginia and inevitably, many in the audience are shocked to recognize the sites. They begin to realize that spying activity takes place all around them—at restaurants, in neighborhood parks and alongside the road near a telephone pole or a tree trunk they drive by everyday.

Each SpyVirginia course has an instructor who is retired from the FBI, CIA or the Department of Defense as well as an instructor who was formerly with the KGB. The former KGB officer gives a stunning segment about recruitment of people in Virginia and ways foreign intelligence officers meet people and elicit information.

The course ends with powerful segment on the consequences of committing espionage and the unseen victims such as the impact of a person’s spying on family members. This one-day course is available to private sector companies, government organizations and military bases located in Virginia and the instructors can present the unclassified course at any facility or at our own training facility.

SpyVirginia is the perfect security awareness class that your employees are sure to remember AND is a great way to satisfy your yearly security awareness briefing requirement. [1 day]
