Intelligence Agency
Official and Model Homepages



To further encourage a culture of openness, we are establishing "model" internet homepages for all the various agencies in the intelligence community. At present, only a few agencies have such homepages, and these official implementations are woefully inadequate. In some cases, which are italicized, the Official pages are not of the listed organization, but rather of the most c losely related organization with a significant web presence. Thus we are implementing "model" homepages for over a dozen intelligence agencies, providing for the public the sort of basic information concerning organization, history, activities, products, facilities and budget that we believe constitute the minimum standard of open disclosure neccessary for an informed public debate on the future of the intelligence community. Based both on official publications as well as on our informed research, these i mplementations will be both a resource for the public, as well as a challenge to the intelligence community to meet minimum standards of public accountability. As each agency meets these minimum standards, we will replace our "model" homepage with the off icial implementation.

The National Intelligence Community nominally consists of thirteen agencies, however there are a number of other agencies which perform intelligence and counter-intelligence functions [italicized in this table]. These agencies are grouped into the National Foreign Intelligence Program [NFIP], Tactical Intelligence and Related Activities [TIARA], and the Joint Military Intelligence Program [JMIP].

Model Homepages for Other Countries

These homepages are maintained by other folks. We encourage you to "adopt" some net.lagged intelligence agency and put up a Model Homepage for them. IntellWeb provides information on intelligence commu nities around the world.
