Recent Espionage Cases

On the US Department of Defense PERSEREC website (Defense Personnel Security Research Center) there's an interesting collection of recent espionage cases (from 1975 onwards).

PERSEREC gets its directions and research priorities from the Office of the Deputy Under Secretary of Defense (HUMINT, Counterintelligence and Security). PERCEREC assists the personnel of DoD on matters of security. They are part of the Defense Human Resources Activity (DHRA)

Their Selected Reports section contains many reports and studies on intelligence, espionage and security. One of those reports is the extensive "Espionage Against the US by Americans 1947–2001", an analyses of 150 spy cases. Who commits espionage, and why and how they did it. You can download the full report here (pdf).

Update: in case of a broken link, you can download the recent espionage cases here or browse by category here.
