论开源情报的渊源、变革及其影响

On the Origin,Change and Impact of the Open Source Intelligence

[研究目的]信息化时代,由于信息的载体形式和技术手段等方面因素的影响,传统的开源情报的地位和作用发生了巨大变化,深入研究开源情报对于理解新时代情报的变革意义重大。[研究方法]依据有关文献研究,采用定性研究方法探讨了开源情报的概念、起源发展、知识基础、技术动力和现实影响等问题。[研究结论]数据和信息作为情报的知识基础、基础来源和原始载体极大丰富,人工智能技术等信息化技术改变了传统的情报工作作业方式,开源情报价值得以提升。开源情报已经或将要在国家安全情报思想和理论、情报组织结构、情报工作机制、情报力量建设与资源配置、情报工作技术手段、反情报工作等诸多重大方面产生深刻影响。

[Research purpose]In the digital time,the open source intelligence(OSINT),which is used for a long time,is greatly changed due to the factors such as the carrier type of information and the new technology.Thus the study of OSINT has great implications for the change of intelligence in modern time.[Research method]This paper explores the issues such as the concept,the origin and development,the knowledge base,the technological stimulant,and the real impacts of OSINT based on relevant literature using the qualitative research method.[Research conclusion]This paper concludes while there are plenty of data and information which are the knowledge base,primitive source and carrier agent of intelligence,the artificial intelligence(AI)and other new information technologies are game changer for the traditional intelligence working style.In this context,the value of OSINT increases.The application of OSINT is changing or will change the conception and theory of national security intelligence,the structure of intelligence organization,the working mechanism of intelligence,the intelligence professional education and training,and the budget and technological resources allocation,and counterintelligence.
