Robert Philip Hanssen - Alleged KGB "Mole" Within the FBI
Robert Philip Hanssen, subject of this book, was a career Special Agent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation specializing in counterintelligence. For many years the FBI never suspected that Hanssen in reality was a spy for the KGB, the intelligence arm of the Soviet Union, and later the SVR, the KGB's successor.
This story of Robert Philip Hanssen proves that truth is often stranger than fiction. With added photographs the book makes intriguing and fascinating reading and belongs in the library of all who are interested in intelligence and espionage.
Latest Council of Europe Draft Convention on Cybercrime and Explanatory Memorandum of the Convention
On April 27, 2000, the Council of Europe released its draft Convention on Cyber-Crime, which is the first multilateral instrument drafted to address the problems posed by the spread of criminal activity on computer networks. The United States has participated in the drafting of the Council of Europe Convention, which is still a work in progress, since the project began over two years ago. The drafting group is scheduled to complete its work by December 31, 2000, but it continually releases new drafts. The Convention will then be finalized by the Steering Committee on European Crime Problems and submitted to the Committee of Ministers for adoption before it is opened to members of the Council of Europe and observer nations, including the United States, for signature.
