    (Bucharest University of Economic Studies, 2023-05) Brătianu, Constantin; Budeanu, Nicolae Alexandru
    Being one of the most important assets in governmental organizations and private companies, intelligence became a subject of interest for both researchers and practitioners in the last decades. In the literature, the concept of “intelligence” has got many meanings and interpretations, like psychological intelligence, emotional intelligence, spiritual intelligence, social intelligence, organizational intelligence, business intelligence, competitive intelligence, and national security intelligence. The core meaning of all these different specialized concepts remains the same: the capacity of processing data, information, and knowledge. Their differences come from the context in which these processes operates and the mission of the organizational structures which perform these specific processes. Business intelligence and competitive intelligence are characteristics of private companies, while national security intelligence is characteristic for the state-owned institutions. This paper aims to present a comparative analysis between business intelligence and national security intelligence based on a critical literature review and adopting a knowledge management perspective. The value of the present paper comes from the semantic tool used in our comparative analysis and the perspective of knowledge management adopted.

    (Tritonic, 2023-10-27) Budeanu, Nicolae Alexandru
    The concept of “intelligence” represents an important subject for researchers, being developed, over time, in many categories, such as business intelligence, competitive intelligence and national security intelligence. Even so, those meanings basically refer to the same capacity of processing data, information, and knowledge, their differences coming from their area of expertise. Given so, national security intelligence is associated with the state institutions, while business intelligence and competitive intelligence are associated with private companies. National security intelligence represents the capacity of the leaders of a country to process the significant data, information and knowledge for the security of that country, from all possible perspectives. For achieving this performance, each country has its own intelligence structures that must collect data and information, analyze and transform them into valuable knowledge for the decision-makers. The methods and means used for conducting the specific activities by these intelligence structures are mainly secret and classified. This paper represents a literature review regarding the possible links and connections between national security intelligence, business intelligence and competitive intelligence, aiming at discovering the possible similarities between these concepts. To achieve this goal, we used the bibliometric analysis conducted with the specialized software VOSViewer. This analysis was focused on the co-occurrence procedure using words and expressions from article title, abstracts and keywords. The databases used for this paper were retrieved from Web of Science core collection, using the following expressions for searching:”business intelligence – competitive intelligence”,”business intelligence - national security” and ”competitive intelligence - national security”. The results showed that there are not any publications that approach the differences between business intelligence, competitive intelligence and national security intelligence.
