ХАД (дари خدمات امنیت دولتی, пушту د ریاست امنیت خدمت (Хедматэ эттэлаате доулати) — Служба государственной информации) — название службы государственной безопасности в Демократической Республике Афганистан (ДРА). В 1978—1979 годах называлась АГСА (Управление по защите интересов Афганистана) и КАМ (Организация рабочей контрразведки). В мае 1986 года переименована в ВАД (Министерство государственной безопасности). Часто в литературе все службы госбезопасности ДРА, существовавшие с 1978 по 1992 год, именуют термином ХАД.
