Screening at Airports While Maintaining Cover
WikiLeaks release: December 21, 2014
This is a secret document produced by the CIA's CHECKPOINT Identity and Travel Intelligence Program
to explain and advise CIA operatives on how to deal with secondary screening at airports, as they travel
to and from covert CIA operations using false ID, including into and out of Europe. The document details
specific examples of operatives being stopped under secondary screening at various ariports around the
world; how and  why the person was stopped  and offers advice  on how  to deal  with  such circumstances
and  minimise  the  risks  if  stopped  to  continue  maintaining  cover.  The  document  was  created  for
distribution  within  the  organisation  and  other  officials  who  hold  appropriate  clearances  at  Executive
Branch  Departments/Agencies  of  the  US  Government. The  document's  overarching  predominant  advice
is to maintain cover, "no matter what".
