Spies & Spying Personality Profiling: Technical Operations Officers
From The Psychology of Spies and Spying by Adrian Furnham and John Taylor.
Technical Operations Officers (TOOs) include many different beasts. They include the ‘boffin’ sections which create new methods of eavesdropping and how to deploy them. There are then those who plant the devices in the rooms or offices of the targets. And then there are those who conduct the clandestine entry of vehicles and buildings.
This is among the most stressful and exciting work and the key capability is to control one’s panic response to unexpected events.
