Born in 1953, Pronichev served with the Soviet Border Troops as an officer in the Transcaucasus, the Russian Far East, and the Northwest Border Districts from 1974 to 1981. Subsequently, he served with the FSB in Karelia and led the FSB's anti-terrorism efforts until 1999, when he was named First Deputy Director in the FSB.
When the Federal Border Guard Service was reorganized (in 2003) as a directorate of the FSB, Pronichev was named to lead the Border Service and retained his former title as well.
