The primary Intelligence agency of Vindex for civilian and foreign intelligence

Purpose

The Vindex Intelligence Agency's primary objectives are to gather, scrutinize, assess, and distribute both local and foreign intelligence to guide Vindex policymakers and the President in national security matters. Additionally, the agency consults with various government departments in the interest of national security and to help carry out their designated duties. The agency is also tasked with collecting, analyzing, and evaluating internal intelligence to maintain the government's and Vindex Nation's systems' ongoing integrity. Furthermore, the agency is there to inform the President of any potential conflicts of interest or violations of integrity.

Organizational structure

  • President of Vindex Nation: The POVN is the Chief Executive and has full authority over all actions or operations of the agency.
  • Director of the Vindex Intelligence Agency: The VIADIR serves as the head of the agency and has complete control over operations and actions conducted. The Director reports to the President of Vindex Nation.
  • Deputy Director of the Vindex Intelligence Agency: The DEPVIADIR serves as the secondary overseeing authority of the agency. The Deputy Director fills in where the Director is unable to and has authority over all subordinates. The Deputy Director reports to the Director.
  • Executive Assistant Directors: EADs serve as executives of directorates. They have direct control over all direct subordinates and jointly report to the Director and Deputy Director.
  • Supervisory Special Agents: SSAs serve as supervisors of agency departments included under directorates. They have direct control over subordinates in their department and report to their respective Executive Assistant Director.
  • Special Agents: SAs serve as the primary workforce of the agency. They are assigned to departments as specialists and generally report to a Supervisory Special Agent or Executive Assistant Director.
  • Probationary Agents: PAs include persons who have recently been hired into the agency and are in Phase Four of the hiring process. They are not permitted to conduct standard duties or operations when not in the presence of a Special Agent or higher without specific approval from an Executive Assistant Director or higher.

Employment Policies

The following section outlines the requirements and selection process for employment within the Vindex Intelligence Agency (VIA).

Mandatory Requirements: Prior to employment consideration, the following requirements must be satisfied by candidates:

  • Candidates must have no criminal record within the previous 90-day period.
  • Candidates must not have committed terrorism within the previous six-month period.
  • Candidates must have no history of illegal drug usage within the previous 60-day period.
  • Candidates must not have been discharged from a government office or agency within the previous 60-day period.
  • Candidates must not be listed on any government-administered criminal watch list.
  • Candidates must have been a citizen of Vindex Nation for at least 180 consecutive days.
  • Candidates must not have served within the Rebellion or Pirates at any time within the previous 90 day period.
  • Candidates must have a history of employment with the Department of Justice or Department of Defense.
  • The President or Director may waive any of these requirements at any moment.

Selection Process

To successfully carry out the employment of a new agent, the following protocols must occur:

  • Candidate Selection: A person is first selected as a candidate. This means that they have satisfied all mandatory requirements, went through a one week observation period, and have been selected by the Office of Talent Acquisition.
  • Evaluation: The candidate is evaluated and tested on their skills in the field by the Office of Talent Acquisition. The Office of Talent Acquisition should then decide if the candidate has received appropriate scores to move on to the next phase.
  • Interview: The candidate goes through an interview, conducted by the Director, Deputy Director, and OTA Executive. A vote is then conducted to determine if the candidate should move on to the next phase.
  • Probationary Employment Period and Basic Training: The candidate has been employed as a Probationary Agent and will go through training, carried out by the Office of Talent Acquisition. Once their training is completed, a vote shall take place between the Director, Deputy Director, and OTA Executive, to determine if they are ready for the final phase.
  • Full Employment Status: When the Probationary Agent completes training and receives a majority approval from the required persons, they will receive the status of Special Agent. If they fail to receive a majority, they will be put through Step 4 once more. Failure after this will result in termination of employment.

Detainment Policies

Before a subject is detained, the detainment must be approved by a Supervisory Special Agent or above, and at least one of the following criteria must be satisfied:

  • The subject has committed, or is conspiring to commit an act of extreme violence or terrorism.
  • The subject is suspected of committing an act of extreme violence or terrorism.
  • The subject has valuable intelligence that can only be obtained through detainment.
  • The subject is preparing to commit, or has committed an act of treason.
  • The detainment has received special approval from the President, Director, or Deputy Director.

During the detention of a subject all contact with the subject must be directly related to the reason for their detention. If the subject tries to initiate conversation, it should be ignored unless it relates to the reason for their detention.

The subject cannot be detained for more than 30 minutes unless special approval is given by the President, Director, or Deputy Director. If the detention period is longer than 30 minutes, it must be conducted at the Westhedge Facility.

All conversations with the subject must be conducted using strictly professional language.

The subject cannot be left alone at any time, unless approved by the President, Director, or Deputy Director for detentions that exceed 30 minutes (Server rules now prohibit detention longer than 30 minutes).

if the crime they are responding to standard crime is not within the VIA's jurisdiction, and thenceforth prohibited. The VIA are not allowed to interfere with crimes taking place, unless special exemptions have been granted by the President, Director, or Deputy Director. If a detained subject was arrested for committing a crime immediately prior to their detainment it is then likely they will be arrested once the Department of Justice is called to handle the subject.

Undercover Operations Procedures

The following are the procedures that VIA agents follow when going undercover

  • Communications. No discussion is permitted in the global chat for agents going undercover. Local chat may only be used with an identity-independent prefix (/via [message]).
  • Logging Out. Before disconnecting, undercover mode is disabled to prevent a known server glitch (Patched).
  • Enabling or Disabling Undercover Tools. The undercover mode are not be enabled or disabled in the eyes of the public. Before the usage of undercover tools (/via on) can be used; agents must consider first if:

1.Presence of an agent on-scene presents a significant safety issue.

2.Civil legislation must be violated in good faith in the line of duty.The usage must then require approval from the President, Director, or Deputy Director.

3.The identity of a agent may significantly impact the quality of information extracted from a subject or location.

4.An interrogation is being conducted at an official Vindex Intelligence Agency (VIA) facility.

5.A raid on a property directly related to an active mission is being executed, requiring the usage of undercover tools.

  • Vehicles. The agency-provided Fleetline and the Police Helicopter are the only vehicles that may be used while undercover.

Warrants

Two types of warrants are typically used when conducting searches

Standard Warrants are warrants that are requested for non-clandestine property raids or spontaneous apprehensions. It is required that these warrants should contain valid reasoning and be requested through the physical warrant request process. If a warrant grantor outside of the agency rejects a standard warrant request, it should not be contested, and agency leadership should review it when they are online.

Special Warrants, which are approved by the Director or Deputy Director, are not recorded by the Department of Justice or by the Vindex Court system. These warrants are typically executed when no warrant grantors outside of agency leadership are available. or if:

  • A property search is necessary to obtain valuable evidence for an ongoing investigation.
  • Active reconnaissance or intelligence operations are being performed in a foreign nation.
  • A government building or facility search is required for an ongoing investigation or operation.
  • A warrant that would violate civil legislation in good faith is necessary. This is only been approved by the President or the Director.
