Dijital Çağda İstihbarat Analizi

Öz

Değişen ve çeşitlenen tehdit iklimi, her alanda yaşanan teknolojik gelişmeler ve önemi gittikçe artan big data-algoritmalar-yapay zekâ vb. yeni analiz yöntemleri, günümüzde istihbarat alanının doğasının ve dönüşümünün dinamiklerindendir. Temel amacı devletlerin güvenliğine yönelik tehditlerin bertaraf edilmesine katkı sağlamak olan istihbarat toplulukları/kurumları, değişen koşullarda yeni risklerle/tehditlerle başa çıkmaya çalışmaktadır. İstihbarat döngüsünün en önemli aşamalarında olan istihbarat analizi de bu yeni konjonktüre göre yeniden şekillenmekte ve bu yeni ortama adapte olmaktadır. Bu noktadan hareketle çalışma, dijital çağ olarak adlandırabileceğimiz içinde bulunduğumuz dönemde istihbarat analizine odaklanmaktadır. İstihbarat analizinin dönüşümünde etkili olan dinamiklere ve tartışmalara ağırlıklı olarak yer verilen çalışmada, istihbarat analizinde mevcut ve gelecek perspektifler; veri madenciliğinde uzmanlaşma, algoritmalar geliştirme, insan unsurunun dijital yeniliklerle desteklenmesi gibi spesifik konular incelenmiştir.

Intelligence Analysis in The Digital Era

Abstract

Today, the world has its own global characteristics due to the threat climate, the size of the data, the variety of actors and the speed of change. Intelligence communities/institutions, whose main purpose is to contribute to the elimination of threats to the security of states and to eliminate uncertainties, are trying to cope with the effects of these factors. As one of the most important stages of the intelligence cycle, intelligence analysis is also reshaped according to these factors. From this point of view, this study focuses on intelligence analysis in the digital age. In this age the importance of open-source intelligence has increased cyber space has created new threats. These factors are considered to be effective in the transformation of intelligence analysis. Thus, intelligence analysis has included algorithms by considering these factors and needs to adapt itself to this period by supporting the human element with digital innovations.
