Shattering the nexus: a new role for counterintelligence

Article Abstract:

European intelligence services are especially organized to confront secret structures, which is the pattern adopted by most transnational organized crime (TOC) activities. Powerful TOC groups maintain a symbiotic relationship with the security forces of their host countries, and counterintelligence personnel must employ better knowledge of TOC to counter it.

Such groups share overlapping interconnections with illicit entrepreneurial colleagues, the capacity to corrupt politicians and police, and internal specializations.
