Former members of the South African intelligence agency, the Bureau for State Security (BOSS), talk about the operations in which they were involved. BOSS was at the centre of the apartheid state's domestic intelligence and foreign intelligence activities, including counterinsurgency efforts both in South Africa and in neighbouring countries. For most of its existence, BOSS was headed by General Hendrik van den Bergh. Cases discussed include the Rivonia Trial and the Information Scandal.

Henning van Aswegen, now retired, was a lecturer in intelligence studies at the National Academy of Intelligence in Pretoria.
