Centrality Intelligence was a branch of the Centrality government responsible for collecting and providing security intelligence. The agency's primary function was to collect information about planetary governments, corporations and individuals using covert operations and paramilitary actions. During the Imperial Period, Centrality Intelligence recruited university professor and anthropologist Ottdefa Osuno Whett as an undercover agent, believing his scholarly background provided him an ideal cover. His handlers assigned Whett to spy on Scrivinir Rokur Gepta, which ultimately led to his death in the ThonBoka nebula in 3 BBY.
