Intelligence, Surveillance and Privacy
|
Navigation Menu
The United States' Intelligence Community (IC) is in the midst of major reform. The increasing threat of international terrorism, unstable states and WMD proliferation has created a pressing need for a more nimble IC capable of timely collection, analysis, and dissemination of intelligence. This will require unprecedented use of information technology for information sharing and analysis. A reformed IC will also have a greater domestic role, and therefore must be subject to appropriate guidance and controls.
Through working groups, roundtable discussions, and research, CSIS is covering the issues surrounding intelligence reform, surveillance, information sharing, and privacy.
