Security Intelligence is concerned with the collection and protection of information relevant to protecting an organisation from external and inside threats.
Security Intelligence is primarily responsible for the protection of personnel, infrastructure, and equipment.
There is often a blurring of roles and responsibilities between intelligence and security.
As an intelligence professional, I’ve often myself as the ‘go to’ person for security related information and advice. As an intelligence professional;, you will need to ‘duel hat’, and be prepared to step into the realm of security regularly.
