UNCLASSIFIED Background and Update on Initiatives A Little History of Intelligence Remodeling Defense Intelligence (RDI) Broad RDI Objectives Current Remodeling Focus Areas Strengthening Intelligence Disciplines Intelligence Campaign Planning (ICP) JIOC Concept Workforce Professionalization & All-Source Analysis
A Little History of Intelligence
History 1947 – Key West Conference – National Security Act / Title 50 – Creation of CIA and USAF Driven by failure at Pearl Harbor Cold War Structure Little Change since 1947 Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act UNCLASSIFIED
Driving Forces Behind Reform Change in Threat – (Conventional vs Asymmetric) Change in the Political / Military Situation War Driven Requirements Perception of Failure – 9/11 Commission – WMD Commission Taking Stock of Defense Intelligence & Defense HUMINT Reform UNCLASSIFIED
Remodeling Defense Intelligence (RDI) Late Summer 2003: Two USD(I) initiatives lead to RDI − Taking Stock of Defense Intelligence (TSDI) − Defense HUMINT Reform January 2004: Reforming defense HUMINT cannot be separated from addressing larger challenges for Defense Intelligence − Based on TSDI findings − Solutions for Defense HUMINT require efforts across DoD and the IC Mid 2004 to Early 2005: 9/11 Commission Report, WMD Commission Report and Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act … all key to RDI
UNCLASSIFIED Broad RDI Objectives Improve capacity to anticipate threats to and warn of impending actions Provide support for appropriate, timely responses to those threats/actions Strengthen COCOMs ability to conduct a range of intelligence activities –Making use of any appropriate source/method and with access to all relevant data or information Enhance support to the Director of National Intelligence (DNI)
UNCLASSIFIED Current Remodeling Focus Areas Strengthening Intelligence Disciplines (starting with Defense HUMINT, CI and MASINT) to improve capacity Implementing Intelligence Campaign Planning (ICP) process to better anticipate threats and plan for intelligence operations Creating Joint Intelligence Operations Commands (JIOCs) to enable more agile operations and strengthen Combatant Commander, Director-CIA and DNI support Developing Professionalization and Sustainment program to improve the defense Intelligence workforce Improving All Source Analysis to anticipate threats and better warn of impending attacks
UNCLASSIFIED Strengthening Intelligence Disciplines Updated Defense HUMINT guidance –Established Defense HUMINT Management Office –Created DoD HUMINT Enterprise that is centrally managed, with decentralized execution Revitalized CI operations along offensive “CI Campaign” lines –Promulgated CI policy concerning campaign management –Initiated a process to embed CI Campaign elements within JIOCs –Fielding DoD CI common info system (PORTICO) Strengthened resources for CI Campaigns Improved integration of CI and Security Countermeasures (SCMs)
UNCLASSIFIED Intelligence Campaign Planning (ICP) Supports Command’s ability to plan, synchronize, manage & execute intelligence Defines detailed collection/production requirements for deliberate allocation between theater and national assets Improves OPS/INTEL integration for planning, crisis, war and post-conflict Used for presenting COCOM and DoD intelligence needs to the DNI/IC ICPs ongoing at Combatant Commands
UNCLASSIFIED Collection JIOC Concept Underlying Principles We are operationalizing intelligence right now in our fight for knowledge in Iraq and Afghanistan JIOCs at various levels –DoD JIOC at DIA –COCOM JIOCs –Tactical/Operational levels (e.g. JIOC-I) Analysts and Collectors under a single chain-of-command JIOCs are tied together through Horizontal Integration … but are more than information technology systems Analysis Collection Manager Ops Officer * All components of the JIOC are under a single Chain of Command
UNCLASSIFIED Workforce Professionalization & All-Source Analysis Professionalization & Sustainment of Workforce: –Assessing and prioritizing near and long-term processes and efforts –Conducting a baseline review of policy and practices related to uniform and civilian defense intelligence Integrating plans with Office of the DNI Reform Efforts All-Source Analysis –Putting collectors and analysts together Deploying analysts in-theater –Implementing comprehensive Defense Intelligence Analysis Program (DIAP, sponsored by DIA) –Ensuring consistent, reliable and precise access to data at all classification levels (Horizontal Integration) –Increasing the depth and sharpening the focus of all-source analysis
UNCLASSIFIED Next Steps… Strengthening Intelligence Disciplines: –Address remaining Defense HUMINT, CI, MASINT issues Intelligence Campaign Planning: –Finalize remaining ICPs –Integrate ICP into JIOCs … “operationalize” intel Joint Intelligence Operations Command: –Bring JIOC-Iraq into full operation –Create COCOM JIOCs through iterative approach –Stand-up Defense level JIOC … integrate collectors/analysts
