Summary/Abstract: In our country the period necessary for building the intelligence services was conducted over a longer timeframe than in other countries. The need to create them rests on the formation before of a solid foundation of the Romanian state and considering its further development process, currently these representing the mainstay of the democratic process. An exception was the communist period, when priority was to maintain the communist regime, the institutional and industrial development according to the communist ideology. After the transition to democracy, the entire security system has been reformed and adapted quickly to the current political and security needs of Romania. The biggest difficulties they have encountered in this period was regaining confidence in the new created security system (also called intelligence services) and redefining its values. Romania's accession to NATO was conditioned exactly by restructuring of the intelligence services and their specialization, to meet so the needs of the new political system and geostrategic environment. At the core functioning of intelligence services is a strategy that emphasizes cooperation, namely the cooperation between institutions responsible for informations, the cooperation between them and the civil society, and also between state institutions and counterparts from countries with which they collaborate on this line. From the beginning until the recognition of the concept of intelligence, the information services and their activities have undergone a radical transformation process.
