This organization is directly antagonistic to the Foundation, using deadly force to attempt to prevent Foundation containment of multiple anomalies. The main base of operations of the Insurgency is unknown, as are its current leaders. The SCP objects and other anomalies stolen from the Foundation typically possess high potential for direct utility, but the Insurgency has also made use of anomalies with less direct applications, such as SCP-884. Both of these objects were originally obtained at no small cost by the Foundation, and were stolen by the original founders of the Insurgency. Among the most notable items are the "Staff of Hermes", an item capable of warping the physical and chemical properties of any matter it touches, and the "Bell of Entropy", an object that can cause a variety of destructive effects depending on where it is struck. Most of the anomalous objects possessed by the Insurgency are unknown. It helps to maintain the extreme poverty and war that is suffered by these countries, so that it can continue its radical experimentation, easy conscription of forces, and lucrative business deals with various opposing factions.

It makes use of authoritarian regimes in poor and developing countries, often using their populations in the same manner as the Foundation does D-Class personnel. The Insurgency not only deals in anomalies, but also in weapons running and intelligence gathering. Since then, the Insurgency has become a major player on the world stage, using the anomalies that it obtains for its own benefit and to consolidate its global power base. The Chaos Insurgency is a splinter group of the Foundation, created by a rogue cell that went A.W.O.L.
