Al-Qaeda Documents

Ben Venzke is the founder and CEO of IntelCenter which provides intelligence support to the intelligence, law enforcement, military and security communities. He has been working for the past 14 years to create professional-level intelligence products that place timely, actionable intelligence into the hands of those who need it, whether it is an operator prepping to perform an entry, an analyst sitting at Langley, or a chief of police attempting to assess the threat to his or her city. Venzke has recently co-authored "The al-Qaeda Threat: An Analytical Guide to al-Qaeda's Tactics & Targets", which has provided readers for the first time in a publicly available format the ability to see what al-Qaeda has said in its own words about targets and tactics. Venzke started his work on the counterintelligence side with a focus on foreign intelligence agencies. After it became clear the value the different methodologies he developed for that problem set would have on the terrorist threat, he picked up the counterterrorism mission eight years ago and it has remained his core focus ever since. While running IntelCenter and its sister company Tempest Publishing, Venzke has managed intelligence products at Jane's Information Group where he worked as an Editor and iDEFENSE where he was the Director of Intelligence Special Projects. He also spent two years as Pinkerton Global Intelligence Service's senior consultant for the Middle East and Africa. He can frequently be seen appearing on CNN, MSNBC and NBC.IntelCenter is the author of 'Al-Qaeda Documents' with ISBN 9780966543759 and ISBN 0966543750.
