Global Intelligence and Security Dataset for NPC Generation

Executive Summary: We compiled a comprehensive global dataset to support NPC generation for RogueIntelligence.org. This includes (1) a country-by-country list of official intelligence, security, and defense agencies (domestic/foreign/military/signals/counterintelligence/border); (2) naming conventions per country; (3) major defense contractors and private intelligence/PMC firms by country; (4) common corporate/contractor agent titles; and (5) sample agent names. Sources include official government publications, defense think tanks, and industry reports. Where possible we cite authoritative sources. The report also provides an exportable CSV-style table of agencies, a companies table, and (for 10 exemplar countries) 50 realistic agent names (with agency/role labels) per country.

Methodology: We systematically gathered data from national government websites, defense/security agencies, and reputable think tanks or industry surveys. For agencies, we identified key security/intelligence organizations via official sources (e.g. government/intel websites and encyclopedias). For names, we used cultural and linguistic resources (e.g. naming convention guides) to list typical given and family names, honorifics, patronymics, and transliteration notes by country. For companies, we combined arms-industry rankings (e.g. SIPRI Top 100) with firm websites and trade publications to list major defense contractors, security firms, and PMCs by country. Job titles were drawn from corporate security and defense contractor job postings and intelligence career reports. Finally, we generated sample names consistent with the naming patterns of each selected country and linked them to plausible agencies or firms.

1. Intelligence & Security Agencies by Country

We created a CSV-style master list of official agencies (foreign/domestic/military intel, signals, counterintelligence, border security) for UN countries. Each entry includes agency name, abbreviation, mission summary, parent ministry/authority, and headquarters city. For example:

Each entry above is drawn from government or expert sources. For example, the U.S. Intelligence Community lists CIA, FBI, NSA, etc. as core members. The UK’s SIS (MI6) is “tasked mainly with covert overseas collection and analysis of human intelligence”. Russia’s FSB “primary responsibilities are within the country and include counterintelligence, border security, counterterrorism…”. China’s MSS is “the principal civilian intelligence and security service… responsible for foreign intelligence, counterintelligence, covert action, and political security”.

Full tables of agencies by country (with fields as above) can be exported in CSV format for NPC generation.

2. Naming Conventions by Country

We cataloged naming patterns to generate realistic names. Common conventions include:

• Russia: Names are typically Given Name + Patronymic + Family Name. The patronymic is the father’s first name with a gendered suffix (e.g. Ivanovich for sons, Ivanovna for daughters).
• Spain/Latin America: People often have two surnames: first the father’s, then the mother’s (e.g. María González Sánchez). Women generally do not adopt their husband’s name.
• Arab World: Traditional Arabic names form a chain connecting generations. A person’s name may include ibn/bint (“son of”/“daughter of”) linking to father, grandfather, etc., plus a family or tribal name (e.g. Salim ibn Ahmad al-Ansari). Many also use a kunya (e.g. Abu [Father’s Name]). In practice, most people go by their given name and family name in daily life.
• Korea: Family name (usually one syllable) comes first, then the given name (typically two syllables). For example, “Kim Min-Jae”: Kim is the surname, Min-Jae is the given name.
• Nigeria: Naming is highly ethnic and meaningful. For example, among the Yoruba, children often receive multiple names reflecting birth circumstances or prayers (e.g. Taiwo, “first twin”; Ayodele, “joy has come home”). Igbo names often invoke God (Chi) or market days. Patterns vary greatly by ethnic group, but many have one or more given names and a family surname.
• China: Family name (surname) first, then one- or two-character given name. The surname is usually one syllable (e.g. Li), the given name one or two (e.g. Wei). Chinese names have no inherited “middle” names. Romanization varies (Pinyin is standard, but older Wade-Giles or other systems exist).
• Japan: Like Korea, family name first. Given names are single or compound (two kanji). No patronymics; married women often adopt husband’s surname.
• India: Extremely diverse. Many use GivenName + Father’sName/Initial + Surname. Some regions (e.g. Tamil Nadu) use a patronymic initial instead of a family name. Caste and religion influence names (e.g. Singh for Sikhs/Hindus, Khan for Muslims). Names often reflect religion, mythology, or linguistic tradition.
• Western Countries: Typically Given Name [+ Middle Name] + Surname. Use of honorifics (Mr, Ms, Dr, etc.) and suffixes (Jr., Sr., III) varies. Common gender associations (e.g. Michael/ John male, Sarah/ Emily female in English; Jean/ Marie in French).
• General Transliteration: Where appropriate, we note transliteration issues. For example, Chinese Pinyin vs. older romanizations (e.g. Beijing vs Peking), or Spanish accented letters. Some countries have multiple languages (e.g. “Abdelrahman” in Arabic vs. “Abdul-Rehman”).

(These patterns are derived from cultural naming guides and by consensus practice.) We used them to generate realistic names (50 per country in the sample, below).

3. Defense Contractors, Private Intelligence, and PMCs by Country

We cataloged major defense and security firms. This includes state-owned and private contractors, and notable private military/security companies. Entries are by country, listing company name, nation, primary services, and notable subsidiaries or affiliations:

Each listing is drawn from industry and government sources. For instance, South Africa’s Denel (state-owned) supplies ~80% of SANDF equipment. UK-based G4S (now part of Allied Universal) “offers armed security, facilities protection, consulting, and crisis management” globally. Control Risks (UK) is a global “intelligence analysis and security consulting firm” serving governments and corporations. The list above is illustrative; a full country-by-country registry can be built similarly.

4. Corporate/Contractor Agent Job Titles

We identified common job titles used in defense contracting and private intelligence/security fields, with brief role descriptions:

• Intelligence Analyst: Collects and interprets information on threats or targets to support decision-making (e.g. analyzing signal intercepts, human intel, open-source data). Often requires security clearance. Responsible for producing threat assessments.
• Cybersecurity Analyst/Engineer: Protects networks and systems; investigates cyber threats or intrusions. May perform penetration testing or incident response.
• Operations Officer/Manager: Oversees mission planning and execution logistics for projects. Coordinates field teams, resources, and schedules.
• Field Operative / HUMINT Collector: Operates on the ground (often covertly) to gather human intelligence via surveillance, interviews, or agent handling.
• Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) Specialist: Monitors communications/intercepts signals to derive intelligence. Works with equipment to decrypt or analyze data.
• Geospatial Analyst: Analyzes imagery (satellite or aerial) and maps to identify structures, movements, or terrain features relevant to missions.
• Counterintelligence Officer: Works to detect and counter foreign intelligence operations within an organization or country (protects secrets and identifies spies).
• Security Consultant / Risk Analyst: Advises corporations on security measures, threat mitigation, and crisis management. Often in private sector firms like G4S or Control Risks.
• Project/Program Manager: Leads specific defense or security projects/contracts, managing budget, schedules, and deliverables (e.g. weapons development program manager).
• Technical Specialist (e.g. Communications, Electronics, Cryptographer): Provides expertise on specialized equipment or technology (radio systems, encryption devices, drones).
• Special Agent / Deputy Director: Senior titles (esp. in agencies like FBI/CIA) overseeing investigative cases or divisions.
• Private Military Contractor / Security Contractor: Field role providing armed protection, military training, or tactical support (commonly in conflict zones under contract).
• Intelligence Operations Specialist: Coordinates intelligence activities across collection disciplines, supports multi-source integration.

These roles were confirmed by job posting analyses. For example, a “Military Intelligence Contractor” description notes duties like analyzing data, assessing threats, supporting mission planning, and working with classified information. Many corporate roles use similar titles (e.g. Competitive Intelligence Analyst, Open-Source Intelligence Analyst, Threat Analyst).
