An Intelligence Civil War: “HUMINT’” vs. “TECHINT” Matthew Crosston and Frank Valli

Since 9/11, intelligence has evolved within a changing atmosphere of modern tactics and techniques for information collection. This atmosphere, coupled with massive leaps in technological advancement such as social media, mobile communications, processing analytics, large-form solid-state data storage, novel computational hardware, and software equipment, has thrust intelligence communities around the world into a strange new world of multi-dimensional intelligence. While science and technology and human capability both remain valuable facets of the same overlapping intelligence construct, there is an emerging trend of diametrically opposed camps pushing for one method over the other. This article explains how in terms of field application and intelligence information processing and analysis, both HUMINT and TECHINT could be maximized by the elimination of forced rivalry and by the encouragement of mutual cooperation that is currently lacking. Keywords: cyber, intelligence, TECHINT, HUMINT, science and technology, national security An earlier version of this paper was published by Frank Valli as “‘HumInt’ vs. ‘TechInt’: A Forced Intelligence Dichotomy,” The Security and Intelligence Studies Journal 1, no. 3 (Summer 2014). Parts of this paper were also published in Matthew Crosston, “American UAV Apartheid and the ‘Blowback’ of New Drone Armies,” New Eastern Outlook (April 3, 2015). Dr. Matthew Crosston, professor of political science, is the director of the International Security and Intelligence Studies (ISIS) program at Bellevue University. Frank Valli earned a Master of Science degree in the International Security and Intelligence Studies program at Bellevue University.
