assessments
Intentional and inadvertent compromises of classified or sensitive information have far-reaching effects on US Government policies and programs jeopardizing our national security, our military operations, and the lives of our citizens. Analyzing such compromises to understand how they happened, could have been prevented, and their full extent is the business of the Assessments section.
Responsibility for national assessments was assigned to ONCIX by the Counterintelligence Enhancement Act of 2002 and reaffirmed by the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004. Such assessments result in recommendations to guide corrective actions and policies.
