Beijing's spy agencies increasingly appear in the news, but news stories typically give us a mere snapshot in time: a massive tech theft by a family of Chinese intelligence officers; an American arrested for spying on his own government employer; the OPM data breach; the Chinese agent recently nabbed in Belgium. Observers too often ponder Chinese Communist intelligence in a way akin to the parable of "the blind men and the elephant," grasping just the tail or a leg and pronouncing the animal to be like a snake or a tree.
This webinar, conducted by Matt Brazil, the leader of Madeira security consulting and a 20+ year veteran of the US army and foreign service, will examine China's premier foreign intelligence agency, the Ministry of State Security, and its roots in the Chinese Communist Revolution. He will explore how known MSS operations fit together to explain the nature of the organization, how this growing and evolving agency affects Chinese people at home and abroad, and how they intersect with foreigners living in and visiting China - especially those in China working for foreign companies.
Four subtopics:
+Beijing’s Spy Agencies: Who exactly is spying? Discover the infrastructure of Beijing’s spy apparatus
+The Ministry of State Security and its Predecessors: What is the history of this complex and overreaching security state?
+How MSS is Changing: How are things changing at the Ministry of State Security, and why? Who are the new players and how do they work together?
+Implications for Those Living and Doing Business Inside China and Abroad: China is an epicenter for American business. But what do you need to know in order to protect yourself and your company from Chinese spies?
