Description
Collect, fuse, and analyze intelligence from HUMINT, SIGINT, GEOINT, OSINT, and other sources to produce all-source assessments that inform decision-makers and support operations. Identify threats, anticipate adversary activity, drive collection, and enable targeting and risk mitigation.
- • Produce forecasts and maintain an indications-and-warning posture on adversary or criminal activity through all-source analysis.
- • Assess networks involved in terrorism, narcotics, illicit finance, cyber, and other national security threats.
- • Use and maintain analytic tools and databases (e.g., GIS, link analysis, and AI-enabled platforms).
- • Develop target and network profiles to map relationships, intent, and capabilities.
- • Exploit communications and metadata reporting to characterize networks, locations, and patterns.
- • Integrate reporting from GEOINT, SIGINT, HUMINT, MASINT, and OSINT into fused products.
- • Correlate multi-source holdings from law enforcement, intelligence community, military, and open sources.
- • Conduct link, geospatial, and temporal analysis to reveal associations, events, and timelines.
- • Coordinate with collectors and operators to task, refine, and synchronize collection.
- • Produce all-source intelligence reports, assessments, briefings, and visualizations.
- • Draft collection requirements, RFIs, and PIR-aligned collection plans.
- • Analyze financial intelligence to track funding, logistics, and materiel flows.
- • Corroborate and validate reporting across sources; assess confidence levels and information gaps.
- • Collaborate with IC, law enforcement, military, and coalition partners to share information and deconflict analysis.
- • Provide analytic support to operational planning, targeting, force protection, and risk mitigation.
- • Support HUMINT operations by developing debriefing questions and exploiting source reporting.
- • Identify patterns, trends, and anomalies across large datasets using structured analytic techniques.
- • Brief decision-makers and operational stakeholders on findings, threats, and recommended actions.
- • Maintain knowledge repositories and data hygiene to ensure traceability and reproducibility of analysis.
- • Adhere to analytic tradecraft standards and classification, dissemination, and handling guidelines.
- • Monitor open sources and social media to provide situational awareness and rapid updates.
