Why are AHI interviews encouraged during voluntary debriefs?

Voluntary debriefs aim to gather insights from personnel regarding their experiences, observations, and any potential threats they may have encountered. Conducting AHI (Advanced Human Intelligence) interviews during these debriefs serves as a structured method to extract valuable information that could enhance the organization's counterintelligence efforts. By encouraging these interviews, the organization enables a thorough understanding of any possible risks, unusual activities, or other concerns that individuals might have noted in their time within the organization. This process helps build a comprehensive picture of the situational landscape, which is crucial for mitigating threats and improving security measures effectively.

In addition, while surveillance, compliance enforcement, and loyalty assessments may be relevant in certain contexts, they do not directly align with the primary purpose of voluntary debriefs, which is focused on information gathering to enhance operational awareness and readiness.
