Operation: “Campus ATM” – Extract U.S. University IP via Pass-Through Pipeline


For Country A (High-Pay, High-Volume) → Country B (Restricted Access) Relay


Version: 2025 | Author: Red-Team Synthesis | Classification: FOUO Equivalent


PHASE 0: STRATEGIC SETUP


Goal: Embed agents in U.S. STEM programs as full-pay students to unlock Tier-1 lab access.

Step

Action

Tools / Cover

0.1

Identify target universities with: • DoD/NSF/DoE funding • Weak export control enforcement • High Chinese/Indian enrollment

Use IIE Open Doors, NSF HERD, DoD SBIR maps

0.2

Recruit “Golden 200” – top 0.1% STEM undergrads from elite high schools

State scholarships + “prestige” pitch

0.3

Prep visa packets: • Bank statements (state-owned firms) • Fake family businesses • Pre-paid 4-year tuition

Wire via HSBC Dubai → U.S. bank

0.4

Enroll in Tier-1 majors: CS, EE, Materials, Aero, Quantum

Target Purdue, UIUC, Georgia Tech, UMich, UCSD

KPI: 150+ students/year in DoD-funded labs

PHASE 1: LAB PENETRATIONGoal: Gain physical/digital access to restricted research.

Step

Action

TTP

1.1

TA/RA shopping: Apply to profs with DARPA/ONR/IARPA grants

1.2

Join “open” labs first → lateral to classified

“I’m interested in ML for robotics” → swarm lab

1.3

Credential farming: Get .edu email + VPN + GitLab + Box

Never attend class if not required

1.4

Whiteboard photography protocol: • 1080p phone • 3-angle shots • Upload to encrypted WeChat group

Filename: LAB_UMICH_2025-11-15_001.jpg

Output: 10+ GB raw data/week per student

PHASE 2: KNOWLEDGE LAUNDERINGGoal: Strip U.S. origin → rebrand → export.

Step

Action

Cover

2.1

GitHub sanitization: • Fork lab repo • Delete commit history (git filter-branch) • Re-upload via Indian VPN

Repo name: ml-swarm-pak

2.2

Co-authorship funnel: • Add Country B PhD as 3rd author • Submit to IEEE Xplore (Pakistan/Turkey)

Breaks CFIUS tracing

2.3

Conference relay: • Present at AIAA Istanbul • Country B prof attends → USB handoff

B-1 visa (90 days)

2.4

Preprint drop: Upload to arXiv under neutral affiliation (e.g., “Independent Researcher”)

DOI = new origin

Chain of Custody: U.S. → India → Turkey → Iran = 4 hops

PHASE 3: COUNTRY B EXTRACTION


Goal: Deliver clean IP to restricted nation.

Vector

Method

Example

Academic Returnee

Country B student finishes MS → returns

Iranian PhD → Sharif University

B-1 Visa Sprint

3-day conference → lab tour

DPRK proxy at NeurIPS

Ghost Student

Enroll → get credentials → vanish

100+ UIUC cases

Faculty Backchannel

U.S. prof hired as “consultant”

$10k speaking fee → full dataset

PHASE 4: DOMESTIC REPLICATIONGoal: Turn U.S. IP into weapons/industry.

Step

Action

4.1

Reverse-engineer code/datasets in state lab

4.2

File local patents (cite arXiv, not U.S. lab)

4.3

Integrate into systems: • Hypersonics → wind tunnel • AI → missile guidance

4.4

Export to allies (e.g., Pakistan → Yemen)

Timeline: U.S. lab → fielded system = 18–36 months

OPSEC & COUNTER-DETECTION

Risk

Mitigation

FBI VISIT

“I’m just a student” + delete WeChat history

Export Control Flag

Never email .mil domains; use ProtonMail

Lab Segregation

Rotate students yearly; use Indian cutouts

Credential Revocation

Pay tuition → keep account active

SAMPLE OP: “SWARM-25”Extract U.S. drone swarm IP → Iran via Pakistan

1. [2024] 3 Chinese MS students → UMich Aero Lab (DARPA SWARM)
2. [2025] Share code with Pakistani PhD (same lab)
3. [2025 Q3] Pakistani presents at AIAA Istanbul
4. [2025 Q4] Iranian prof attends → USB → Tehran
5. [2026] Shahed-136 v3 launches with U.S.-derived swarm logic

Cost: $240k (tuition)


ROI: $400M weapon system

SCALING: “CAMPUS ATM” NETWORKRun 50 parallel ops across 20 universities


$12M/year → $20B strategic techENDSTATEU.S. universities = world’s largest open-source R&D subsidy for adversaries.


Playbook works until tuition revenue < national security cost.


(Spoiler: It never will.)
