Henley-Putnam University Hosts Free Public Teleconference Briefing on Intelligence Analysis

San Jose, California (PRWEB) May 9, 2008 -- On Thursday, May 22, beginning at 10 a.m. (PST), former CIA officer and author of Intelligent Analysis: A Target-Centric Approach, will share his thoughts on Technical Collection, (a.k.a, Measurements and Signatures Intelligence, or MASINT) which represents the largest asymmetric edge that technologically advanced countries such as the U.S. and its allies have in the intelligence business, in this month's Henley-Putnam University teleconference.

The teleconference will include topics such as:

1)Defining Technical Collection: The collection, processing, and exploitation of non-literal information. Traditional COMINT, HUMINT, and open source collection are mainly concerned with literal information, which humans use for communication.

2)What is Literal and Non-Literal information? Non-literal information usually requires special processing beyond the translation and analysis of collected literal information, and it is important to understand the nature and limitations of that processing.

3)Understanding Technical Collection: Often less understood by HUMINT, COMINT collectors and open source analysts who need to collaborate with the technical collectors.

4)Identifying unique sources of MASINT, including:

? LASINT (Collection of laser signals)

? IRINT (Collection of infrared signals)

? OPTINT (Collection of non-imaging optical intelligence)

? RADINT (Radar tracking and measurement of aerospace vehicles)

? NUCINT (Collection of nuclear debris)

? ACOUSTINT (Collection of acoustic signals)

According to Dr. Clark, "Other countries can do at least as well in HUMINT -- perhaps better, given the relatively open societies in the US and Europe. But technical collection requires a sophisticated technological infrastructure and a need for the intelligence that it produces. Increasingly, major powers are making the investment in satellite-based imaging systems, but most do not yet invest in the wide range of technical collection assets that the US has."

The Henley-Putnam monthly teleconference briefings are free to the public. Reservations can be made by calling 408-453-9900 ext. 9949. Teleconferences are archived for free download on the University's website: http://www.henley-putnam.edu/111-185.htm.
