Intelligence Communication in the Digital Era: Transforming Security, Defence and Business

Information and communication technology will have a major impact on the delivery of analysis, and particularly the presentation of analytic research, data, and conclusions. The world is transitioning from delivering data and analysis from static, print and other narrative products to the use of much more dynamic, digitally-based platforms, such as tablets. Increasingly, this will require adapting intelligence deliverables to decision-makers who are increasingly inclined to consume information and analytic insights in digital, interactive formats. The ability of analytic units to address this challenge could well determine whether they remain competitive in an era of digital communication. This edited volume addresses the key issues that have arisen from this transition, and explores the future implications for the consumption of research, data and analysis.
