This <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/kinds-of-intelligence\/\">type of intelligence<\/a> comes from intercepted communications such as phone, fax, and computers. Cyber intelligence specifically refers to intelligence gathered from the Internet. For the NSA, SIGINT is the focus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Intelligence Gathering Method #2: HUMINT<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HUMINT <\/strong>is short for human intelligence. This type of intelligence is collected by case officers (COs) who gather intelligence face-to-face, by talking to people. COs tend to be a particular brand of people\u2014good liars, cynics, smokers, and drinkers.&nbsp;This is all HUMINT. CIA operatives focus on this technique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Intelligence Gathering Method #3: LOVEINT<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>LOVEINT<em> <\/em><\/strong>is short for love intelligence. This is an inside joke rather than a real intelligence type. LOVEINT refers to using surveillance for personal use, such as spying on your ex-girlfriend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Evolution of Intel Gathering<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Since the birth of the Internet, SIGINT has become more widely applicable than HUMINT.<\/strong> For example, before the Internet, if a spy wanted to get something off of someone\u2019s computer, she had to find a way to physically access it. There was plenty of opportunity to get caught while downloading info or installing new hardware or software. After the Internet, if a spy wanted to access someone\u2019s computer, all she had to do was send their target an email with malware. She didn\u2019t have to try to bribe, turn, or coerce her target. Her target need never even know he was being spied on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a result, the roles of HUMINT and SIGINT in gathering intel changed. <strong>HUMINT would figure out who was worth hacking, and the SIGINT would take care of collecting the intelligence.<\/strong> SIGINT and HUMINT often work together. For example, the author once created an infected thumb drive that could hack UN delegates\u2019 computers, and someone else had to do the actual plugging in of the thumb drive.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Snowden&#8217;s HUMINT Experience<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Once, a CO brought Ed to an embassy party and Ed happened to sit next to a banker who handled Saudi accounts. The US suspected Saudi Arabia was financing terror, so Ed acted curious and listened (the usual HUMINT technique). Then Ed found a CO, Cal, and pointed out the banker.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cal worked on the banker but got nowhere, so Cal finally took the banker out drinking and convinced him to drive himself home. Cal called the cops and the banker was arrested for drinking and driving. Cal insinuated himself into the banker\u2019s life\u2014driving him places and helping him pay the fine\u2014but when Cal finally talked to the banker about becoming an asset, the banker said no. The HUMINT operation had taken a month and gone nowhere. Ed understood why the intelligence community was moving from HUMINT to SIGINT in preferred method for intel gathering.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What are the different methods for gathering intelligence?
