He lives in the shadows all his life. Invisible, yet observant, staring at the greyness, trying to unravel an un-unravelable web for meaning, for information that his master so impatiently seeks, that his nation so desperately needs.
Beyond the visible frontiers of the nation, there exists a realm that is invisible to many. A realm that is defended by very special warriors, The Intelligence officers. Sneaky and shadowy, these officers remain engaged in a constant battle to outfox the enemy.
The defense of this realm determines the nation’s capability to thwart subversive threats. Threats that can compromise national security to the point of toppling governments or losing territory. It could mean the allegiance of a region or a section of people being lost to the enemy, or even the death of democracy itself!
What are the unseen dangers that our nation faces today and how does our Intelligence agency match up to the challenge?
How do we unleash the full power of Intelligence, of Knowing?
