INTRODUCTION:
Intelligence is extremely important in homeland defense and
security. Our society is suspicious of intrusions on personal liberties.
Mandated identity cards, restricted vehicle access and random searches of
airline passengers are generally not well received. That makes it especially
important to prevent terrorist attacks by interdicting the terrorists and their
resources before they can reach their targets. The primary means of
accomplishing this is through a combination of intelligence and law enforcement
work.
Military intelligence branches have been extremely effective
while operating in various countries with the use of multiple forms of
intelligence:
Human Intelligence (HUMINT), Geo spatial Intelligence (GEOINT),
Measurement and Signature Intelligence (MASINT), Open Source Intelligence
(OSINT), Strategic Intelligence (STRATINT), Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), and
Technical Intelligence (TECHINT). Simply stated, and reduced to the lowest
common denominator, intelligence is information of the world about us.
Regardless of the form of intelligence, the world can be divided into
short-term, narrow focus, Tactical Intelligence, and long term broad focus,
Strategic Intelligence.
This course will rapidly take you through the basics of
intelligence/counterintelligence followed by standard and tested and proved
techniques of both..citing case studies/examples.
Intelligence/counterintelligence collection and operations will be looked into
in detail , source operations/management , dissemination management..all from
the perspective of the ever important HUMINT and a careful amalgamation with
the counterintelligence element. The overall thrust will be in the direction of
combating terrorism/insurgency using proven methods of both.

Course Description:
Intelligence is a critical part of operations. It is not separate from
operations. Information, on its own, is not intelligence. However, when the
intelligence process is properly applied, resulting intelligence products allow
the operational planners to effectively interpret the environment , gain
a good situation understanding , plan and execute the operation successfully
and forecast future actions or trends.
Intelligence &
Counterintelligence Course Level 1 focuses on the intelligence process and counterintelligence and
introduces the current concept of Every Soldier is a Sensor or ES2.ES2 is the
overriding factor in the global transformation of intelligence and it has been
very successfully applied to situations in Iraq/Bosnia. A case study has been
elaborated to drive home the concept. The case study is based on a real
situation. Counterintelligence is treated with reference to insurgency but the
techniques can well be extrapolated and applied to terrorism as well. The
intelligence-operations dynamic has been highlighted and the importance has
been very clearly outlined.HUMINT has been discussed in detail.The student is
given a thorough brush of HUMINT before being taken into the world of ES2 and
Counterintelligence. Initial lessons conform to doctrinal concepts but
gradually newer methods are focused upon.
The course is designed with the student in mind and too much technical terms
and abbreviations are avoided. Any person with a security acumen can do this
course but once complete will have added a very good brief on
intelligence,counterintelligence and applications to his repository.
The course has been designed by army officers and research scholars. The RIEAS
and ATAB top management staff have overseen the course development.
