    It's like a puzzle w/ 1000s of pieces. They will only ever see the shape of 1 piece. They never see any other piece. They have no clue how many pieces there are in total. They don't know where their piece fits. They don't even see the partial image that their piece contains. 1 shape. That's it. They CAN'T disclose secrets, because they have none. 0.01% even see the beginning of the assembly of the puzzle.

      @@AlenAbdula They really don't, w/ few exceptions. Large projects w/ physical design come from top down. Then the project is broken down, and delegated, into components. Compartmentalization is done per component/sub-component. All of those employees are given differing cover stories for the purpose of the components, if any. This also acts as an indicator to locate leaks. The 'leaky compartment' can be determined by the (dis)info leaked.
      Design and assembly is done by the smallest team possible. This is evident in every publicly available 'skunk works' type crew photo. There are a couple dozen people who see the finished product.
      But most compartmentalized projects are information based. And regardless of the direction of work or information flow, a small # of people see the finished project. Nearly everyone else is entirely in the dark.
      The exceptions in 'crossovers,' or less-compartmentalized staff, are only in necessary, high demand fields. For example, there just aren't enough Unix sysadmins to supply the intel community demand and fully compartmentalize them.
