TheOffice of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) is the civiliannational intelligence component of theUnited States Department of Homeland Security and one of two statutory members of theUnited States Intelligence Community (IC) within DHS, the other beingCoast Guard Intelligence. It is the only member of the IC tasked with providing intelligence tostate,local,tribal andterritorial (SLTT) governments, and private sector entities, and developing national intelligence products from information collected by SLTT entities.[1]
I&A leads the Department of Homeland Security Intelligence Enterprise (DHS-IE), an activity which includes seven centers, more than 75fusion centers across the United States, and intelligence units from DHS field and headquarters components.
I&A is led by theunder secretary for intelligence and analysis, aSenate-confirmed position that is dual-hatted as the department's chief intelligence officer (CINT).[2]
DHS and I&A were established in the wake of theSeptember 11 attacks to address some of the fundamental national security challenges and information sharing gaps identified by the9/11 Commission. I&A was originally established by theHomeland Security Act of 2002[3] as the Directorate for Information Analysis and Infrastructure Protection. It was not until theImplementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007[4] that I&A was formally created as the first federal agency statutorily mandated to share information at the state and local level.
DHS's "Intelligence Enterprise" (IE) is made up of nine "Component Intelligence Programs" (CIPS), each led by a "Key Intelligence Officer" (KIO). The DHS IE is supervised and led by the Under Secretary for Intelligence Analysis under the title "Chief Intelligence Officer" (CINT), and is assisted by the Deputy Chief Intelligence Officer, who serves as the Executive Director of the Intelligence Enterprise Program Office (IEPO). IEPO was established in 2023 as part of I&A's "realignment."
