“The ACH procedure has the offsetting advantage of focusing attention on the few items of critical evidence that cause uncertainty or which, if they were available, would alleviate it.” (Heuer, 1999). Conclusions are derived from analysis of data, evidence is compared to possible hypotheses, and a hypothesis assessment is based on the reliability of the sources and validity and plausibility of the intelligence. Confidence levels are labeled as high, moderate, and low by ICD 203 standards. How topics presented in INTL 150 can improve performance as an analyst and as a supervisor Intelligence analysts in the IC, DHS, and FBI are tasked with the primary responsibility of developing threat assessments against the United States and national critical infrastructure.

Security managers apply evaluation techniques to; identify threat assessments, evaluate vulnerabilities, and identify critical assets. Security managers can then mitigate the threat against their facility with countermeasures, to protect facilities, operations, and personnel. The National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) monitors individuals, groups, and organizations that pose a threat to the U.S. homeland. To be considered a threat, the group must have the capability and intent to carry out an attack. If the IC determines a group or organization has the capability and intent to conduct an attack, they will issue a threat assessment to protect national interests. The security manager needs critical information concerning the date, time, place, and method of a planned attack. “Counterintelligence aids national security by

On Friday, 17 July 2015, at approximately 1400 hours, I, Officer Allison Bigham, was contacted by a Parks Services Supervisor, Andrew Jones, in regards to an associate who was reported to have their cell phone on them. Jones stated that Miller had already been told to put the phone in her locker; however, she was being uncooperative. After updating Sergeants Frank Long and Charles Drakeford on the situation, I was instructed to pick up the associate, Victoria Miller, and escort her to the South Carolina Interview Room in order to complete a compliance verification audit. I met with Andrew Jones who stated that he would help me find Miller because Park Services had no way to contact her. Upon entering Boomerang Bay, Jones and I were flagged

One Saturday afternoon, Hayden went to a car dealership, and bought the 2017 Chevrolet Camaro. Hayden only has $30,000 in his bank account, and the car costs $25,905. Since we are talking about Hayden, everyone just knew he was not going to choose the monthly payments. After spending three hours signing paperwork, he decided to spend the rest of his money at the grocery store. After, a long day spending every single dime he had in his bank account, he comes home to the Electric Company cutting off his power. Hayden forgot to pay his electric bill for this month; he did not want to pay it because JEA charge him $350 a month.

Now one must ascertain that such regulations would only be applied under certain governance systems- a good government; a government that is liable to the people. In such cases, there should be funds available for social programs. I will classify social programs as two types, based on how they should prioritizes allocation of funds:
The domestic preparedness cycle has four categories which are prevention, protection, response, and recovery. The first category of the preparedness cycle is prevention which applies to terrorism and transnational crime, whereas, terrorism and crime are intentional acts committed by people, it is well within reason to hope to prevent some of those acts from occurring (Cordner, 2016). In the USA PATRIOT Act, was written and designed to prevent and/or deter terror acts from occurring, additionally, in part one, this section gives investigators the tools and abilities to better combat terrorism (USA PATRIOT Act, 2001). As for protection, it is related to prevention but focuses on more specific facilities, locations, and system with the intent
The attack on the World Trade Center was not the first attack and was not the first time the US Intelligence Community had heard of Al-Qaeda or Osama Bin Laden. The role of counterintelligence from both sides the US and Al-Qaeda, lent to the information flow not only form the attackers but also to the ones who would ultimately respond. The FBI, the CIA, the DIA, have integral parts in these series of events from the information collection to the information flow. In a time where it was realized that Counterintelligence and Counterterrorism have a similar need, as well as information sharing across agencies, have led to the CI and IC we see today.
Vital to this are on-going threat assessments. Effective threat assessment is the need for abundant, timely and useable intelligence, about potential terrorist sponsors, perpetrators, activities and targets, as well as intelligence to guide our prevention and preparation activities and programs. Despite the transnational nature of many terrorist groups, challenges to integrating foreign intelligence with domestic law enforcement information remains.
Terrorism has become a main threat to the peace and development in the U.S and the world as a whole. Past experiences of terrorism such as the September 11th attack in the United States has a created the need to have a functioning counters intelligence which will effectively deal with terrorism. However, for the counter intelligence to be effective, other basic functions have to be played out. The basic functions are collection and analysis. The other function is the execution of covert actions and the major role is the counterintelligence. The Intelligence agents combine all roles and place them under the umbrella of intelligence.
Two universities that help conduct research to protect the homeland are the University of Southern California and Texas A&M University. These are just two of many different universities that help with the protection of our country. They use the Center for Risk and Economic Analysis of Terrorism Events (CREATE) program funded through the Defense of Homeland Security. CREATE was established around during 2004 after the September 11, 2001 attacks. Their mission is to improve the Nation’s security utilizing eight research areas to develop different programs that “creates models, tools, evaluation methods, software, targeted analysis and communication protocols”
The analysis is then given to consumers and policy makers, once it is checked by the analyst supervisor and peers. The analyst should also be ready to give a briefing on short notice. But both the analyst and the policy maker or consumer have to be aware of at all times, is that the intelligence field does not know everything. “On any given subject, the intelligence community faces what is in effect a field of rocks, and it lacks the resources to turn over every one to see what threats to national security may lurk underneath” (Pillar).
