It contains six departments, the following three are known:
 
* ''intelligence unit:'' Their task is espionage and intelligence gathering. This department also contains a sub-department called ''Loki'' (named after the sinister nordic god of lies). Their field is essentially state-sponsored terrorism. The task of Loki-agents is not only to assassinate and sabotage enemies of the state, but to strike fear into the hearts of the enemies of the [[Lyran Commonwealth]]/[[Lyran Alliance|Alliance]]. The over-the-top brutality of Loki-agents is famed throughout the whole [[Inner Sphere]].
 
 
 
* '''Molehunters:''' This is the counter-espionage-department. Their task is to find foreign spies. They were also used during the [[Skye]]-rebellion of [[3065]] to find out if the rebels had infiltrated government entities.
 
 
 
* '''Lohengrin:''' This is the anti-terror-department. They were also deployed to the [[Federation of Skye]] on the eve of the outbreak of the rebellion of 3065.
 
 
 
The LIC also has an unofficial department, called '''Heimdall'''. Heimdall consists of<!-- current and former? unsure--> LIC-agents, that still consider themselves patriotic Lyrans. However, they are not willing to tolerate the massive collateral damage that often occurs in Loki-operations. Accordingly they sabotage Loki-operations that they deem going to far.

Espionage
is composed by three subsections.
Lic-loki.png

Loki (named after the Nordic god of lies) essentially is a state-sponsored terrorist unit. Their task is not only to assassinate and sabotage enemies of the state, but also to strike fear into the hearts of the foreign enemies of the Lyran Commonwealth. The excessive brutality of Loki agents is infamous throughout the whole Inner Sphere.

The Bodians provide training, education, and deployment of operatives, and it is the assignment and command branch. It activly seeks new talents and transforms people to be a useful tool for the Lyran Alliance.
LIC-molehunters.png

The Molehunters are a counter-espionage branch, and their duty is to protect the Lyran State against all outside agents. Before the Civil war they discovered and identified agents from House Marik, Liao and Kurita, but this changed under Archon Katherine; their new enemies were the MIIO and the DMI. The branch was also active during the Skye-rebellion of 3065 to find out if the rebels had infiltrated government agencies.
Heimdall Heimdall is an unofficial department and in some ways an internal affairs safety valve. It was formed by LIC-agents who simply considered themselves patriotic Lyrans. Unwilling to accept the massive collateral damage that often resulted from Loki-operations, they sometimes sabotaged certain operations that they deemed to be going to far. They are the "watchdog" of the Lyran people.
