Operations security indicators
Process of tasking, collecting, processing, analyzing and
disseminating intelligence.
What are the 4 critical sources to gather intelligence as well
as defend u.s. bases?
Human, signals, image, and open-source intelligence
Human intelligence (humint)
Information collected and provided by human sources;
information is used to identify elements, intentions, capability,
etc.
Signals intelligence (sigint)

information systems and providing it to customers across the

Imagery intelligence (imint)
, 2
Imint includes representations of objects reproduced

infrared sensors, lasers, etc.
Open-source intelligence (osint)
Utilizes information that is available to all. From pictures and
videos to audio recordings, all is available whether it be
secured or classified
4 steps of osint processing- discovery
A complex field of primary reference sources. Photographs,
images, documents, audio recordings, oral debriefings, etc.
Discrimination
Secondary raw data emerged and appropriately filtered by osd
data analysis; generally consists of raw data that can be put
together and refined. Usually with an editing process.
Distillation
Osint information derived from a voluntary process of analysis,
filtering, distillation, and dissemination to a specific selected
category; designed to meet particular needs depending on the
situation.
, 3
Dissemination
Validated open-source intelligence (osint-v); information that
has fully refined and will be dispersed to individuals who are
in need of this information.
Integrated defense
Application of active and passive defense measures.
Bridges the gap between peacetime and wartime actions
Concept of integrated defense
Id is the incorporation of multidisciplinary active and passive,
offensive and defensive capabilities.
What is the goal of integrated defense?
Employed to mitigate potential risks of daf, joint, and coalition
