Abstract

U radu se definiraju i analiziraju obavještajne discipline uz komparaciju ključnih razlika između SIGINT-a i HUMINT-a. Detaljno se prikazuje disciplina SIGINT-a, njezine tipologije i karakteristike. Gledaju se dobre i loše strane SIGINT-a, etične dileme koje se vežu uz prirodu posla kojim se SIGINT bavi te načini kojima bi se poboljšao javni pogled i smanjile etične dileme vezane uz SIGINT. Kroz prizmu studija slučaja prikazuju se slučajevi obavještajnih promašaja uvjetovani pogrešnim obavještajnim zaključcima na temelju informacija proizašlim iz SIGINT-a. Primjeri se razrađuju te se na kraju radi komparativna analiza gdje se uspoređuju zajedničke poveznice između raznih slučaja.

Abstract (english)

The paper defines and analyzes intelligence disciplines with a comparison of the key differences between SIGINT and HUMINT. The SIGINT discipline, its typologies and characteristics are presented in details. It gives introduction at the pros and cons of SIGINT, the ethical dilemmas associated with the nature of the work SIGINT does, and ways to improve public perception and reduce the ethical dilemmas associated with SIGINT. Through the prism of case studies, cases of intelligence failures conditioned by wrong intelligence conclusions based on information derived from SIGINT are presented. The instances are expanded upon, and at the conclusion, a comparison analysis is conducted to identify the shared links among the different scenarios.
