Defense Personnel and Security Research Center (PERSEREC) was established by the Department of Defense (DoD) to improve the effectiveness, efficiency, and fairness of the DoD personnel security system. PERSEREC is a component of the Defense Human Resources Activity (DHRA) under the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense (Personnel and Readiness). It employs researchers to conduct applied research to improve the DoD Personnel Security Program. One of those research programs maintains a database on espionage. Familiarizing yourself with this organization is essential in understanding how espionage is studied in the U.S.
