Intelligence activities in Finland were carried out by two organizations: the military intelligence and the central detective police (CSP) - the state police (VALPO). Chronologically, the scope of the monograph is designated - 1914 - 1939 - from the moment of the creation of the special services (1914-1917) and until 1939 - the beginning of the Soviet-Finnish war.
