NOTIONES paper on MASINT

The NOTIONES Consortium is proud to announce the realization of a scientific publication about the latest trends in MASINT Technologies for CBRNe threats.

The article provides up-to-date information on the latest Measurement and Signature Intelligence (MASINT) technologies to face Chemical, Biological, Radiological, Nuclear and Explosive (CBRNe) threats and their advancements exploitable by Intelligence and security practitioners. The primary emphasis is on CBRNe technologies, given their central role in MASINT. The discussion encompasses cutting-edge developments that exhibit significant potential in enhancing capabilities for the identification and mitigation of CBRNe risks. In addition, the document puts forth a set of recommendations which cover essential improvements and approaches to effectively address various aspects of CBRNe Intelligence. This comprehensive exploration aims to provide readers, including Intelligence and security practitioners, with valuable insights into the evolving landscape of MASINT technologies addressing the unique challenges posed by CBRNe threats.

This work was supported by the NOTIONES (iNteracting netwOrk of inTelligence and securIty practitiOners with iNdustry and acadEmia actorS) project, that has received funding from the European Unions’ Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No. 101021853
