Although covert intelligence officers work across various areas, examination of expenditure reveals the majority of budgetary commitment is divided between signals intelligence (SIGINT) and human intelligence (HUMINT). The Institute focuses on the professionalisation of HUMINT activities as the domain of signals and cyber intelligence is already catered for through professional bodies such as engineering and mathematics.
In modern intelligence practice, intelligence professionals may find themselves operating across collection disciplines. Institute registers are therefore for all practicing intelligence professionals regardless of their primary focus. Registrants are recognised for their competence, ability and integrity. They are highly skilled and knowledgeable professionals and are professionally accountable to the public.
