HUMINT - En begreppsanalys / HUMINT- An analysis of the concept

Westerlund, Jörgen January 2010 (has links)
<p>Under det senaste 10-15 åren finns ett ökande inslag av särskilda förband och enheter för inhämtning av information och underrättelser från mänskliga källor i de insatsområden som Sverige skickar trupp till. Dessa förband kan vara av typen Field Humint Teams (FHT) eller National Intelligence Cells (NIC). Ökningen av denna typ av förband samt ökningen av det militära behovet av att agera i miljöer som präglas av kontakter med människor har skapat en ökad användning av det engelska uttrycket HUMINT (Human Intelligence) i den svenska militära vokabulären.  HUMINT och Personbaserad inhämtning (PBI) är det två begrepp som i Sverige används för att beskriva inhämtningen av information och underrättelser från mänskliga källor. I Försvarsmaktens Underrättelsehandbok - Förhandsutgåva (FM UndH Fu) från 2006 används begreppet HUMINT trots sitt engelska ursprung och ingen tydlig svensk översättning är där gjord. De övriga underrättelsedisciplinerna är dock översatta till en svensk benämning. Begreppet personbaserad inhämtning nämns inte en enda gång i boken. </p><p>Inom Försvarsmakten finns det dessutom olika uppfattningar om vad som är HUMINT och PBI eller vad det inte är. Dessa två begrepp används ibland lite slarvigt och jämställs ibland med varandra.</p><p>Det övergripande syftet med denna uppsats är att pröva hypotesen att de i Sverige vedertagna begreppen HUMINT och PBI uppfattas och värderas olika av individer och organisationer. Dessutom syftar uppsatsen till att jämföra de svenska definitionerna med andra försvarsmakter, organisationer och enskilda författares tolkningar av begreppen i syfte att utröna om dessa skiljer sig åt. Avslutningsvis syftar uppsatsen till att diskutera huruvida det har någon betydelse att begreppen tolkas olika.</p>

The Appropriate Use of Human Intelligence in Combating Terrorism

Koseli, Mutlu 08 1900 (has links)
When we looked at different issues in terrorism such as definitions, descriptions and motivations, groups and supporters, tactics, strategies, and victims of terrorists and terrorist activities, we see that terrorism is an issue that can occur at any time, and in any place, and it seems that the terrorism threat will still exist in the future. It is almost impossible to stop all terrorist activities all over the world, but it is possible to formulate an anti-terrorism policy that can keep terrorist activities at a minimum level and prevent planned terror activities by a well developed intelligence network. It seems that to establish a good intelligence collection system an approach in which HUMINT and TECHINT are interdependent with each other is necessary. By using a combination of human and technical intelligence collection methods, intelligence agencies can become more effective and efficient against terrorism.

Hledání zpravodajství z lidských zdrojů: Měnící se role HUMINT v rámci americké zpravodajské komunity po 9/11 / Hledání zpravodajství z lidských zdrojů: Měnící se role HUMINT v rámci americké zpravodajské komunity po 9/11

Lochovský, Jan January 2014 (has links)
Diploma thesis tracks changes of approach to the clandestine human intelligence collection (HUMINT) as part of a wider process of the United States Intelligence Community reform after the September 11 terrorist attacks. Using longitudinal comparative analysis, the author observes which key factors enabling successful HUMINT collection were significantly improved and which were neglected, thus constraining a highly desirable development of this intelligence collection technique so important in combating asymmetric threats such as terrorism. Following factors were identified as critical in improving HUMINT: institutional anchoring of HUMINT, adaptation of operational techniques to successfully monitor decentralized terrorism, 'dependence' of the US intelligence community on technological means of intelligence collection, and availability of qualified and especially linguistically adept intelligence professionals in responsible agencies.

Min fiendes fiende är min vän-En undersökning om underrättelsekällors motivationer inom human intelligence / The enemies of my enemies are my friends -A theory-testing study of intelligence sources' motivations in human intelligence

Bülund, Nora January 2022 (has links)
The thesis aims to understand the motivation of sources in Human Intelligence gathering. Todo this, three autobiographies of three former sources are analyzed where they write about theirlives as sources. To understand the sources' motivation two theories are used, Abraham H.Maslow's hierarchy of needs and Harney's theory. Maslow's theory is based on Developmentalpsychology and Harneys on categorizations of types of police sources Harney encountered as afederal agent. Through the analysis, themes in motivation such as community and securityreappear. Motivation turns out to be about being appreciated for the work you do, belonging toa group, contributing to society, and financial stability. On the other hand, understanding thedifference in what the motive versus motivation can be for the sources seems to require a closerand deeper understanding of the sources' personalities.

An analysis of counterinsurgency in Iraq: Mosul, Ramadi, and Samarra from 2003-2005

Clark, Terry L., Nielsen, Shannon E., Broemmel, Jarett D. 12 1900 (has links)
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited / After defeating the Iraqi military, Coalition Forces spread out across Iraq to stabilize and transition control of the country back to Iraqis. This historical analysis of Mosul, Ramadi, and Samarra studies military operations intended to stabilize these three cities from April 2003 to September 2005. Prior to and after the reestablishment of Iraqi sovereignty, Coalition Forces worked with Iraqi citizens at the local level to reestablish control of the population. In order to achieve this, the counterinsurgent force must understand that when consensus for non-violent political opposition does not exist within the governed populace, coercive measures must be taken to enforce local security. This analysis evaluates the effects of military operations over time and through frequent unit transitions with varying numbers of U.S. and Iraqi security forces. The conclusions gleaned from this analysis are summarized as unit approaches that either achieved control or failed to achieve control at the local level. This study suggests that a distributed lightto- medium equipped ground force operating within urban centers and in continuous close proximity to the population is best able to establish local control and partner with local police and military forces. This force should be enabled with language and cultural skills. Necessary combat multipliers include human intelligence collectors and social network analysts. / Major, United States Army

Law Enforcement Intelligence Recruiting Confidential Informants within “Religion-Abusing Terrorist Networks”

Ucak, Hursit 30 April 2012 (has links)
This study examines the motivation factors that make some individuals (terrorists) confidential informants. The study is based on the assumptions of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs and Herzberg’s motivation-hygiene theories. Accordingly, main assumption of the present study is that some individuals with unsatisfied needs in religion-abusing terrorist (RAT) networks choose to become confidential informants to satisfy their predominant needs. The main hypothesis for the purpose of this study is “The individuals’ decision-making processes to cooperate with law enforcement intelligence (LEI) as a confidential informant is affected by some motivation factors during recruitment process.” The present study tests 27 hypotheses in order to answer two main research questions. To meet its objectives the present study uses quantitative research methodology, constructs a cross-sectional research design, and employs secondary data analysis to test the hypotheses of the research questions. A dataset was formed based on official records of Turkish National Police by including all confidential informants within eight different RAT networks in Turkey. First, individual effect of each motivation factor on being a confidential informant is tested and discussed in detail. Then two group specific multivariate models for being an informant in Al-Qaeda and Turkish-Hezbollah are illustrated, compared and contrasted. Both bivariate and multivariate statistical analyses not only revealed the extent of individual effects of motivations among RAT groups, but also helped us to build fitting multivariate models that explain the probability of being informants in certain RAT networks. By doing so, the present study aims to make contributions to the literature and practice on this relatively unexplored phenomenon. Findings indicate that while some motivation factors are common among all RAT networks, the strength and direction of their effects vary among different RAT networks.

Low Intensity Conflict: Contemporary Approaches and Strategic Thinking

Searle, Deane January 2007 (has links)
Low Intensity Conflict (LIC) is a significant feature of the contemporary world and it is a particular challenge to the armed forces of many states which are involved is such conflict, or are likely to become so. This thesis is not concerned with how such difficult conflict situations arise. Rather it is concerned with how, from the point of view of the state, they may be contained and ultimately brought to a satisfactory resolution. The work is thus concerned with the practicalities of ending LIC. More specifically, the purpose of this research is to establish a framework of doctrinal and military principles applicable to the prevention and resolution of LIC. The principles of this thesis are based in numerous historical examples of LIC and six in depth case studies. These distilled principles are analysed in two central chapters, and are then applied in two latter defence force chapters so as to ensure there practicality and resilience. Numerous defence academics and military practitioners have been consulted in the production of this thesis; their contribution has further reinforced the functionality of the principles examined in this research. The research illustrates the criticality of a holistic approach to LIC. The function of this approach is to guarantee the stability of the sovereign state, by unifying civil, police, intelligence and military services. The effectiveness of the military elements must also be ensured, as military force is central to the suppression of LIC. Consequently, the research makes strategic and operational prescriptions, so as to improve the capability of defence forces that are concerned with preventing or resolving LIC.
