The intelligence-sharing alliance of the US, UK, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand — an alliance Switzerland is not a member of, placing CLAVI beyond its reach.
Definition
The intelligence-sharing alliance comprising the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. Member nations share signals intelligence and have established mutual legal assistance treaties that facilitate cross-border data access. Switzerland is not a member. CLAVI’s Swiss domicile places it outside the reach of this alliance’s surveillance and data-sharing infrastructure.
