INTELLIGENCE REPORTING AND SECURITY
Intelligence report writing takes a lot of preparation before finalizing or conducting a brief. There are many different techniques that can be used to present information that has been discovered during an intelligence investigation. Various charts can be used to analyze the timelines, criminal activities, financial activities, or biographical profiles to prove or disprove lawful conduct of the individual or the organization.
The activity flow chart shows the different steps that have been taken in a complex operation. By breaking the steps down, it becomes easier for the analyst and law enforcement organizations to identify the misconduct of a complicated operation. The activity flow chart is also used along with other charts to help further demonstrate probable activity.
Assessments are made after and during a strategic investigation. These assessments help to move from a broad or well-defined position and further investigate closer to the source(s). There are two types of assessments: General and Specific. A general assessment provides an overview while a specific assessment can disclose threats and vulnerabilities.
An Association analysis is used to show the relationships between people, groups, or organizations to show criminal or non-criminal activity. The association matrix is used as an interim product that includes police reports, surveillance reports, field interviews, corporate records, testimony, informant data, public record data, and other information. The association analysis can be used to indicate other possible criminal activity.
The association chart is used in conjunction with the association analysis to depict relationships. The way that the chart is used can provide new information about a network or the operational mode of a conspiracy. In order to interpret the association chart, a few mechanisms must be understood. First, the person in the center of the chart may not be the head of the criminal activity or conspiracy. More likely than not, this person may merely be the easiest person to contact and track by the analyst. Second, the association chart is only a snapshot and relationships may change from day to day.
An association matrix is chart made up of rows and columns depicting every relationship that an individual has. Information is taken from investigative reports, public records, and testimony. Each person that is associated will also have as many known other relationships as well.
Another type of an analysis that can be utilized is the bank record analysis. This is simply following the money trail and tracking how much money is being spent.

My family never had any customs or beliefs the only belief was, if the baby’s has an upset stomach, the parents massage the stomach with oil to make the baby feel better from having an upset stomach. Generally speaking many who have an upset stomach will throw up or have diarrhea that will last a few days, the food will get stuck on the belly; in that case messaging the belly with oil will prevent from the baby from getting sick even further and will help speed up the process. There are many customs from different cultures that I have heard of, especially in the Hispanic community, but that I and my family don’t believe in, such as the evil eye. The evil eye is given to a baby when someone sees a baby and wants to carry it, but can’t because the mother said no. In effect the evil eye then causes the child to cry and scream or even make the baby sick. Red bracelets are given to children to help them from getting the evil eye. Another belief is sunken fontanel, which is when the baby’s soft spot from the top of their head sinks down because they are given the evil eye or if the mother stopped breast-feeding soon. As a result a remedy that helps is to put your thumb in their mouth to push the head up or to turn the baby upside down to hit them on the bottom of their feet. Many families have their own customs, but I was never brought up with any of these customs that I mentioned; many of the customs that I know about were because of friends and their parents; they told me what they did to their children so they can grow up
Yi- Feng Yang (2016) and Ganos and Galla (2013) state that to lead others you should know yourself very well and what leadership skill you attain. Change of leadership helps to bring up leadership trust and change commitment. Leadership models and styles are defined as trust, admiration, loyalty, respect and integrity. Originality and value in a leader show different opportunities of styles such as engaging, goal-oriented and involvement. To be precise, these leadership styles demonstrate good characteristics of a leader displaying good leadership skills. Yi- Feng Yang (2016) state that these skills are very important in the workplace environment. Leadership trusts are viewed as a social bond to the employees to have faith
...ation, and attempts to form theories and predictions that can later be proven or disproven through investigation and collection of evidence. Useful investigative information that could come out of this analysis could include identification of individual’s roles in the organization, mapping out the structure and individual groups/cells of the criminal enterprise, as well as identification of supply chains, tactics techniques and procedures (TTP)/modus operandi (MO and indicators and warnings (I&W).
While there are many various global issues that affect the International Human Resource Management to run efficiently, there are two key concepts that play a major role in understanding how to approach them with cohesive and a well coherent strategy; they are the International Human Recourse Management Strategy and Understanding the Cultural Environment. In the International Resource Management strategy, many companies will do their research in finding companies that offer the following:
In 1939 Criminologist Edwin H. Sutherland proposed his theory of Differential Association in his Principles of Criminology textbook. Differential Association theory states that criminal behavior is learned behavior. Sutherland along with Richard Cloward, and Lloyd Ohlin attempted to explain this phenomenon by emphasizing the role of learning. To become a criminal, a person must not only be inclined toward illegal activity, he or she must also learn how to commit criminal acts. Sutherland’s differential association theory contends that people whose environment provides the opportunity to associate with criminals will learn these skills and will become criminals in response to strain. If the necessary learning structures are absent, they will not. Sutherland relied heavily upon the work of Shaw and McKay, Chicago school theorists, in high rates of juvenile delinquency. Sutherland's theory of differential association still remains very popular among criminologists due to its less complex and more coherent approach to crime causation. It is also supported by much evidence.
The Stop Online Piracy Act was proposed in January of 2012. SOPA was a legislative act that attempted to prevent piracy through DNS blocking and censorship. The legislation caused the protest and blackout of multiple online internet services including Reddit, 4Chan, Google, Wikipedia, Mozilla, and Tumblr. Now, internet users are faced with another possible challenge called the Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act, or CISPA. CISPA was quickly passed by the House of Representatives on April 26th, 2012, and is now being processed through the Senate (Beadon). CISPA's purpose is to promote national cybersecurity through allowing private companies and the federal government to exchange users' private information, including emails and text messages, with complete legal immunity and one hundred percent anonymity. To some, CISPA appears as SOPA 2.0, another attempt to further limit American rights and privacy. Meanwhile, to others, CISPA appears as a milestone that needs to be reached in order to advance technologically and improve the nation's security. CISPA's purpose appears noble, but the current version of the legislation at least requires a revision due to its privacy invading policies, vague terminology, possible restrictions of internet freedom, and violation of the Fourth Amendment.
Although, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence is the lead intelligence integration agency for forging the intelligence community as well as ensuring that information is delivered with the highest possible (dni.gov. n.d.). It is not the only agency that shares intelligence within the intelligence community. However, it is the only agency that ensures that all of the information is correct as well as placed along to the President, Congress, the heads of other departments and agencies of the executive branch, the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff as well as senior military commanders (dni.gov. n.d.). Although, the National Security Act of 1947 had to be amended by the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention

A reflection of the work done to date in this course has given me much clarity on the goals that I wish to achieve in my life and the directions that I need to take to achieve them. In module three, I was able to start a financial planning process, in which I was able to determine my current financial situation concerning income, savings, living expenses, and debts through the utilization of a balance and income statement; financial objectives and personal goals sheet. I prepared a list of current asset and debt balances and amounts spent for various items providing me with a foundation for financial planning activities. In module Five, my financial process continued through the evaluation of a home affordability in which I used Maximum Mortgage
Personal financial planning is important because it helps you prepare financially for the future. My first short-term financial goal is to have an 8-month emergency savings account. This class helped me understand the important steps needed to achieve my financial goals. “Successful financial planning requires specific goals combined with spending, saving, investing, and borrowing strategies based on your personal situation and various social and economic factors, especially inflation and interest rates” (Kapoor, Dlabay & Hughes, 2012). First I evaluated my spending habits. This allowed me to see where I was
Report writing is very important in the police field. An officer must be able to accurately record information regarding those activities and present it to those who were not there while also doing their job well. A person 's guilt or innocence may rest on information present or absent in these records (Server).
Having money saved away for emergencies is a must! People do not always know exactly what is to happen in their future, but having money set aside for certain purposes can make the process much easier. For example, one day someone could be making $28 an hour and living financially well, to being laid off and not having any other source of income until
