This is the nations's primarily intelligence agency and traces its history to the Special Branch of the old Sudanese Police in the 1950s. Since 2024 the GIS have issued a distinctive camouflage design based on [[woodland]] drawings, but featuring deep violet, russet brown, and bottle green shapes on a sand or tan background.

 == Camouflage Patterns of the SPLA and other Anti-Government Forces ==
 The SPLA and other anti-government forces wore a combination of standard Sudanese military issue camouflage uniforms, and privately procured uniforms in a variety of other patterns. Many of these would continue in service with the military and police forces of [[South Sudan]].
 * One of the earliest documented patterns worn specifically by the Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA) was an Asian-made copy of the Portuguese vertical [[lizard]] camouflage, which emerged during the 1990s.

 * In 2009, the Sudanese Police Force was first documented wearing a unique two-color desert pattern consisting of large khaki disruptive shapes on a sandy background. The design also incorporates an overprinted logo into the scheme. This pattern continues to be worn into the present period, and has also been documented in use with the Central Reserve Police.

 * Several [[digital patterns|digital]] camouflage patterns have been in use with Sudanese forces, the earliest of which was first observed in 2012. The Ministry of Defense commissioned several designs, including those targeting desert, semi-arid, and temperate geography. The three designs seen below, two of which seem to be loosely based on the [[USA|MARPAT]] design of the US Marine Corps, and another with a primarily brown colorway, are in service with the 9th Airborne Division.
