Title: Intelligence analysis
Post by: kmfkewm on February 17, 2012, 11:26 am
We should organize interested people in the digging through of everything marked with [intel] so that useful intelligence can be distilled from it. Many of the PDFs in particular are huge and only have a few interesting parts hidden in huge walls of not-so-applicable-to-us text. We should go through all of this information and concentrate the parts that have implications for us. After the useful information is distilled we can then analyze it as a community. Intelligence is important people. Too bad we don't have a specific forum for it and need to clutter the security forum up....seems kind of strange since intelligence and security are two distinct things. Security techniques are effected based off of intelligence gathering and subsequent analysis.......but to lump them together is kind of stupid.

What happened to blackopsecurity.net ? It would be a good idea to make another wiki just like it.

I'm thinking of making a small book from my notes, but it's going to take a while to put together properly. I'll probably upload bits of it to the forums, starting with Shipping procedures/intell, and later compile it all into a single volume. That way it'll have lots of feedback from forums informing it's contents etc.

Figured this was a good place to dump this particular piece of intel... on how to analyze intel. Pretty much the entire document is really good shit.

QTC, erm, could you upload that somewhere else? Not sure how comfortable I am downloading something directly from an intelligence organization.
