One of the Kazulian Government's most formidable offencive and defencive weapons, is its surveillance and electronic warfare capabilities. Little to the knowledge of its immediate and distant neighbors that their phones calls, faxes, emails even financial transactions were being monitored by either the Government Communications Service and the Royal Communications Centre, the state's two surveillance and signals intelligence agencies. With the resurgence of terrorism and destabilizing regimes, it is becoming increasingly clear to the Government that their must be an asymmetrical response to these occurrences as a means of both countering them and most importantly predicting their occurrence.
Under extreme secrecy by the Foreign Intelligence Service, a programme was opened which pooled the resources of every communications and intelligence body of the Kazulian State. The General Directorate for Security, the Military Intelligence Service, the Foreign Intelligence Service, the Government Communications Service, National Cybernetic Defence Force and the Royal Communications Center had formed an umbrella programme for which their joint operations might it be of an offencive or defencive posture could be commanded. Known in the intelligence community as the "Hlýða Programme", it has been the forefront of extreme surveillance/data collection and signal intelligence interception as well as cybernetic warfare.
Inorder to expand the programme's reach to a global scale, it would need the inclusion of external countries and the only external countries the Kazulians would trust are their closest allies, the Istalians, the Luthorians and the Hutorians. The cybernetic warfare capabilities of the Luthorians, combined with the cybernetic "forced entry" tactics of the Istalians, accompanied by the cybernetic defence capabilities of the Hutorians and finally topped off with the listening and surveillance capabilities of the Kazulians would make this "Axis" an unstoppable movement in the direction of global surveillance. That is why this conference was called for, to pool the resources of these four nations to form an all seeing eye across the world.
Three at the middle of the ballroom table. One in full military uniform, presumably the Head of the Royal Communications Centre, Major General Thorbjørn Grimstad. Another in suit, presumably the Head of the Government Communications Service, Viktor Martinsen and finally the third (shockingly a woman) in the uniform of the National Cybernetic Defence Force, presumably its Head, Major General Ingrid Barsness. They awaited the arrival of their Istalian, Luthorian and Hutorian Counterpart, with extreme patience.
