| Summary/Abstract |
Despite the potentially horrific implications of failure, counterintelligence (CI) is often viewed as the stepchild of the United States Intelligence Community (IC). The assertion has often been that CI in the U.S. has never worked due to the American culture and its frequent association with "mere" security. This was made even worse in many cases by the IC's shift from a counterespionage posture to a counterterrorism focus after the 11 September 2001 (9/11) attacks, 2 thereby creating unique challenges for CI managers. Unfortunately, relatively little focus has been placed on providing CI managers with useful ways to conceptualize and meet the unique day-to-day challenges they face.
