Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: Cybersecurity educational endeavours are nowadays of interest to public and private institutions as proven by the fact that multiple academic and training formats are available in academia and professional organizations. Given that cyberintelligence developed as a subfield of both intelligence and national security and cybersecurity, education and training are needed to form intelligence analysts that deal with cybersecurity threats in intelligence and national security organizations. Our main objective is to validate and prioritize a set of cybersecurity and intelligence competences that can be used in education and training endeavours for the cyberintelligence analysts in intelligence and national security organizations. Our results show that the high-priority competences for this type of professionals are a mix between intelligence and cybersecurity competences, most prevalent being the analytical and contextual dependent ones. In our article, we also elaborate on examples of educational practices that can be applied to high priority competences.
