Orientation: William Hutchinson, writing in Information Warfare and Deception observes that
In 1991, J. Bowyer Bell and Barton Whaley published Cheating and Deception as an attempt to
theorize about the nature of deception in its broadest sense. They created a classification of deception types. In it, they speculated that there were two basic types of deception:
Level 1: that consisted of hiding the real, and
Level 2: this showed the false.
These fundamental types are further divided into various categories
Hiding can be broken into:
masking (basically means blending in for example, camouflage),
repackaging (where something is given a new wrapping), and
dazzling (which consists of confounding the target for example, using codes)
Showing can be broken into: mimicking (this means producing replicas, which have one or more characteristics of reality)
inventing (which involves creating new realities)
and
decoying (which involves misdirecting the attacker)
Joseph W. Caddells DECEPTION 101?PRIMER ON DECEPTION observed that another
distinction is made in regard to the degree of specificity of deception. In their 1982 work, Strategic Military Deception, Donald Daniel and Katherine Herbig note the existence of what they term A-type and M-type deception. A-type, or ambiguity increasing, deception is designed to create general confusion and to distract an adversary by making noise.
M-type, or misleading variety, deception is more ambitious in that it is designed to mislead an enemy into believing a specific deception plan. Here you engage in an array of deception operations which should supplement and complement one another, all designed to cause your opponent to believe an alternative to what you are actually doing. This alternative is, of course, not true. This type of deception is more complicated and more ambitious than simple ambiguity. It requires more preparation, more resources, and usually more time.
