That's a wrap for the Class of 2024! Today is the last official day for our DCSA Student Experience (DSE) interns, and we wanted to take a moment to express our gratitude for their hard work and contributions in helping DCSA maintain its role as America's Gatekeeper. In addition to their assignments within the agency our interns had the opportunity to participate in a roundtable discussion with the Director, present project out briefs to DCSA leadership, and take some field trips in-between - like this trip to the National Museum of The Marine Corps. We wish all of them good luck in the upcoming school year and future endeavors - especially if they find their way back to the agency! DYK the application period for 2025 DSE positions is now open?

What is elicitation? Through elicitation Foreign Intelligence Entities (FIE) and criminals strategically use conversation to extract information without giving the feeling of being interrogated. These individuals are adept at pretending to be someone you trust and attempt to place personnel under obligatory requests. Be observant of the people during engagements and suspicious of people seeking unauthorized information. Report before situation escalates. Be aware: https://lnkd.in/ezDt9XFm #DCSA #Counterintelligence
