Describe the Intelligence Process

1. Planning and Direction: receive commander's guidance and develop intelligence collection plan and priorities 2. Collection: gather raw information needed to produce finished intelligence 3. Processing: convert data in for information for analytical use. 4. Analysis and Production: fuse information into coherent picture Put evaluated info into context and produce finished intel. 5. Dissemination: ensure the finished analysis is received by the customer in a timely and relevant manner. 6. Evaluation and Feedback: occurs throughout the entire cycle. Feedback can come from anyone.

Describe MASINT/ACINT

Measurement and Signature Target Source (DIA) is information obtained by quantitative/qualitative analysis of data derived from specific technical sensors for the purpose of identifying any distinctive features associated with the srouce, emitter, or sender and t o facilitate subsequent ID and/or measurement of the same. Acoustic intelligence collects/processes acquired acoustic signatures from the surface ships and submarines, although it can also be sued for low-flying aircraft such as helicopters. The difference is how the intelligence is derived.

What is MEDUSA?

Mob Excess Deterrent Using Silent Audio is used to describe temporary personnel incapacitation.

What are O-6 Intel commands?

What is the difference between Title 10 and Title 50

Title 10 is about development, preparation, and coordination of cyberspace operations to defend U.S. and its allies against malicious activity carried out against the U.S. or a U.S. person by a foreign power. It gives authority to disrupt, defeat and deter cyber attacks. Title 50 is the authority to conduct intelligence operations and covert actions.
