In 1846, Congress requested an accounting of funds spent in relation to the Ashburnton-Webster Treaty. This was when Daniel Webster was the Secretary of State. In this matter, the then President James Polk cited that the request endangered confidential and delicate matters of foreign intelligence matters and denied the request.

No, there is no British MI4. The British intelligence agency commonly known as MI6 (Secret Intelligence Service) is responsible for foreign intelligence and counterintelligence operations. There is no official mention of an MI4 in the British intelligence community.
Foreign Intelligence Entities often use methods such as espionage, cyber operations, human intelligence sources, signals intelligence (SIGINT), and open-source intelligence (OSINT) to collect information. These methods involve activities like surveillance, interception of communications, cyber attacks, recruitment of assets, and monitoring of publicly available sources.
The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was established after President Truman signed the National Security Act of 1947, which also created the National Security Council. The purpose of the CIA is to covertly obtain intelligence from foreign countries, thus the CIA is given a great deal of freedom so that they can collect the intelligence without having to expose the United States's involvement in any covert operations. In addition, in 1948 the National Security Council issued a directive known as NSC 10/2, which gave the CIA even greater freedom and discretion to conduct clandestine operations in order to obtain vital intelligence for the US government.
Depending on the context, a foreign intelligence service is either an intelligence service that specialises in foreign intelligence (as opposed to security intelligence), or an intelligence service that belongs to a foreign country. The latter shouldn't require any more explaining, however I'll go into more detail about the former: Foreign Intelligence is intelligence that relates to foreign entities, whereas security intelligence pertains to domestic security issues. However, this should not be taken to mean foreign intelligence = overseas, security intelligence = domestic. Both kinds of services generally do both overseas and domestic operations, although usually for different purposes. This inevitably leads to a small degree of crossover (such as Counterterrorism or Counterintelligence), which often results in rivalry between agencies (MI5 vs MI6, for example).Some notable Foreign Intelligence services:*Secret Intelligence Service (SIS, better known as MI6 - Military Intelligence, Section 6) | Britain*Australian Secret Intelligence Service (ASIS) | Australia*Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) | USA*Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) | Canada*Foreign Intelligence Service (SVR) | RussiaSome notable Security Intelligence services:*Her Majesty's Security Service (Better know as MI5 - Military Intelligence, Section 5) | Britain*Australian Security Intelligence Organisation (ASIO) | Australia*Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS, deals in both security and foreign intelligence) | Canada*Federal Bureau of Investigation National Security Division (FBI NSD) | USA*Federal Security Service (FSB) | Russia

Impairment of a US Signals Intelligence collection platform could include physical damage to equipment, cyber attacks targeting communication systems, or disruption of satellite transmission. An unexplained compromise of US Intelligence Operations could involve unauthorized access to classified information, interference with data encryption protocols, or infiltration by foreign intelligence agencies.
The National Security Agency - Central Security Service (NSA/CSS) is a key member of America's Intelligence Community. The NSA collects, processes, and disseminates intelligence information from foreign electronic signals for national foreign intelligence and counterintelligence purposes and to support military operations. NSA/CSS is also tasked with preventing foreign adversaries from gaining access to classified national security information
