Abstract
Abstract Ana Montes, a senior intelligence analyst, spied on the Defense Intelligence Agency for Cubans. Highly specialized in Latin American military intelligence, she was known as “Queen of Cuba.” Her traumatic childhood made her susceptible to recruitment and her motivation was ideological. Using classic espionage techniques, mainly memorization, she managed to spy for 16 years until she was discovered. The findings of an American spy in Cuba, a bad relationship with coworkers, and the lack of a support agent led to her exposure. Ana was sentenced to 25 years in prison and five to probation. Her case indicates 10 conclusions about espionage.
