There’s an update out to the Lexicon of Government Information Policy, prepared by Susan L. Maret. Many of the entries are related to security and intelligence in the post-9/11 world. Each entry is explained and includes a citation. Here a few I hadn’t heard before:
Blowback
Deception planted abroad by an intelligence agency to mislead people in other countries, then returning to the originating nation, where it misleads that people, or even the government itself.
Information Fratricide
The results of employing information operations elements in a way that causes effects in the information environment that impede the conduct of friendly operations or cause adverse effects on friendly forces.
Split Knowledge
Separation into data and information into two or more parts, each part constantly kept under control of authorized individuals or teams so no one individual or team will know the whole data.
