A ghost prisoner originally known only as Triple X was not assigned an internee security number because his secret detention was at the request of the CIA.

On March 3 2006 in compliance with a court order from US District Court Jed Rakoff, the US Department of Defense released 57 portable document format files that contained hundreds of transcripts from the Guantanamo captives Combatant Status Review Tribunals and Administrative Review Board hearings. These transcripts were only identified by the captive's Internee Security numbers.

On April 20 2006 the Department of Defense released the first of two official lists of captives, that contained the captives' Internee Security Number, their name, and their nationality. [http://www.dod.mil/pubs/foi/detainees/detainee_list.pdf list of prisoners (.pdf)] , "US Department of Defense", April 20 2006] That list contained information about the 558 Guantanamo captives who the DoD acknowledges were held in Guantanamo on August 2004, whose status as "enemy combatant" was confirmed or disputed by a Combatant Status Review Tribunal.

On May 15 2006 the Department of Defense released a longer list of 759 individuals, which they asserted listed all the captives who had been held in Guantanamo, in military custody. [http://www.dod.mil/news/May2006/d20060515%20List.pdf list of prisoners (.pdf)] , "US Department of Defense", May 15 2006]

The two lists contain incompatible names for several dozen individuals.

Several dozen men known to have been held in Guantanamo are not present on either official list.
