Abstract

U ovom radu bit će definirani pojmovi podatak, informacija, znanje i mudrost kroz kognitivnu
hijerarhiju, open source intelligence (OSINT) kao obavještajna disciplina, razvoj OSINT-a od
samih početaka pa sve do sadašnjosti kada ima izrazito važnu ulogu u kompletiranju
obavještajnih proizvoda. Bit će analizirane ključne karakteristike OSINT-a kao obavještajne
discipline, njegova kompleksnost i problematika koja obuhvaća obradu nezaustavljivo rastuće
količine informacija koje se svakodnevno objavljuju na otvorenim izvorima. Promotrit će se
prednosti i nedostatci koje OSINT nosi sa sobom, kao i nove metode prikupljanja informacija iz
otvorenih izvora koje su sve učestalije zbog napretka tehnologije. Objašnjeni su pojmovi „siva
literatura“, kao i World Wide Web (WWW) i pravni aspekti prikupljanja podataka iz otvorenih
izvora

Abstract (english)

This paper will define the concepts of data, information, knowledge and wisdom through
cognitive hierarchy, open source intelligence (OSINT) as an intelligence discipline, and the
development of OSINT from the very beginning until the present when it plays a crucial role in
completing intelligence products. The key characteristics of OSINT as an intelligence discipline
will be analyzed, its complexity and issues include the processing of the growing amount of
information that is published daily on open sources. The advantages and disadvantages that
OSINT brings with it, as well as new methods of collecting information from open sources that
are becoming more frequent due to technological advances, will be examined. The terms „grey
literature“ as well as the World Wide Web (WWW) are explained, as well as the legal aspects of
collecting data from open sources.
