인간정보의 의의와 중요성의 재조명 = Revisiting on the Significance and Importance of Human Intelligence and It’s Concept

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

HUMINT is a syllabic abbreviation of the words HUMan INTelligence. It refers to intelligence gathering by means of interpersonal contact, as opposed to the more technical intelligence gathering disciplines such as SIGINT, IMINT and MASINT. HUMINT can provide several kinds of information.
It can provide observations during travel or other events from travelers, refugees, escaped friendly POWs, etc. It can provide data on things about which the subject has specific knowledge, which can be another human subject, or, in the case of defectors and spies, sensitive information to which they had access. Finally, it can provide information on interpersonal relationships and networks of interest. However, good intelligence management begins with the proper determination of what needs to be known. For that reason, evaluation of HUMINT is essential, because many of the wide variety of sources are of doubtful reliability.
HUMINT is both a source of positive intelligence, but also of information of strong counterintelligence value. Espionage is inherently clandestine, and the legitimate holder of the information may change plans or take other countermeasures once it is known that the information is in unauthorized hands.
HUMINT is in a constant battle with counterintelligence, and the relationship can become very blurry, as one side tries to “turn”agents of the other into reporting to the other side.
From all these points of view, this article introduces the basic concept of HUMINT and its dual aspect of character and various practical issues derived from the espionage field.
Therefore the most important task for the sake of national security through national intelligence is right understanding on the HUMINT and openness of mind about the real work and achievement of intelligence field which is one of the purpose of this thesis.

전 서울시청 공무원 류자강에 대한 간첩 사건 문제가 2014년 대한민국을 뒤 흔들었고국가정보원을 혼돈상태로 몰아넣었다. 검찰의 국정원에 대한 수사 과정에서 블랙요원을포함한 정보요원들의 신상이 국회의원과 검찰에 의해 적나라하게 드러났다. 단적으로 인간정보활동에 대한 불신과 참사를 가져왔다. 류자강 사건에 등장하는 협조자나 국정원 직원들이 모두 인간 정보요원, 즉 휴민트이다. 정보의 세계에서 사람의 가치는 매우중요하다. 정보의 핵심인 상대세력의 의도와 능력은 과학기술 장비로는 파악할 수가 없기 때문이다. 단적으로 미국 CIA는 2005년 국가비밀부를 창설했다. 이에 본고는 인간정보요원의 문제를 학문적으로 고찰하여 상식 수준의 이해를 바로잡고 또한 인간정보에대한 이론적 이해를 바탕으로 불변의 가치를 가지는 인간정보 활동이 위축되는 일이 없도록 하고자 함에 목적이 있다. 그리고 미국 CIA 국가비밀부의 창설사례를 제시하여 인간정보의 중요성을 강조하는 새로운 지휘부가 우리의 휴민트 정보체계에 대해서도 교훈을 얻을 수 있도록 하고자 함도 있다.
