Human Intelligence (HUMINT)

Other

Human Intelligence, or HUMINT, is a category of intelligence gathering that relies on interpersonal contact -- such as espionage, interrogation, and diplomatic reporting -- rather than technical means like signals or imagery intelligence. It is a core discipline within military, government, and corporate intelligence agencies, employing case officers and analysts to recruit sources and assess human-derived information. HUMINT remains vital for gaining insight into intentions and plans that technical surveillance cannot capture.
