Osama Bin Laden
intelligence derived from information openly available within the public domain.
OSINT
[BLANK] modeling typically uses electronically stored maps (of the world, of regions, of cities) to display geographically oriented data
Geospatial
Most anticipatory analysis results in some form of BLANK—a description of the future state of the target
scenario
Encryption is an example of:
Denial
Strategic Intelligence deals with long-range issues (True or False)
True
intelligence derived from information collected from and provided by human sources.
HUMINT
[BLANK}—people, places, things, and events—is perhaps the most common subject
of intelligence target modeling
relationship modeling
The fundamental task in weighing evidence is determining its credibility: True or False
True
What is the problematic phenomenon in which evidence that is experienced directly is strongest (“seeing is believing”)?
Vividness weighing
Another term for tactical intelligence is:
battlefield awareness
intelligence comprising all communications intelligence, and electronics intelligence.
SIGINT
BLANK are mathematical descriptions of the interrelationships believed to determine a system’s behavior.
simulation modeling
BLANK scenarios are a forecast.
system-change
The falsification of information is known as:
deception
Give the three reasons why Intel fails
1.) failure to share information; 2.) failure to analyze collected material objectively; 3.) failure of the customer to act on
intelligence.
scientific and technical intelligence obtained through quantitative and qualitative analysis of data from specific technical sensors.
MASINT
BLANK models are used to simulate military operations
wargaming
A BLANK scenario is a type of projection
driving-force
In intelligence analysis, BLANK is the organizing of relevant information in a coherent way, taking source and context into consideration. It involves evaluating the information for relevance and credibility, and then incorporating it into the target model
collation
The instruments of national power are:
intelligence derived from the exploitation of collection by visual photography, infrared sensors, lasers, electro-optics, and radar sensors such as synthetic aperture radar.
IMINT
BLANK are used to assess the performance of major foreign weapons systems or
specific subsystems
Weapons systems models
What are the 6 steps for creating an intelligence scenario?
1.) Define the issue and the target.
2.) Identify and rank the driving forces or factors.
3.) Select the scenario logics.
4.) Flesh out the scenarios.
5.) Draw out the implications.
6.) Identify and monitor indicators.
Name 2 common pitfalls of evaluating evidence:
Vividness Weighting; Trusting hearsay; Weighing based on source; Premature closure, reliance on expert opinions
