The U.S. Intelligence Community Data Strategy aims to maximize the value of exquisite intelligence data that is vital to national security.
This will require addressing legal, ethical, and policy issues, including privacy, civil liberties, data integrity, and the responsible use of artificial intelligence. Failing to do so could lead to operational setbacks, compliance challenges, and the erosion of public trust.
The full report, "Legal, Ethical, and Policy Implications of the U.S. Intelligence Community Data Strategy" (accessible via the download article button in the top left of your screen), identifies unresolved governance challenges throughout the intelligence data lifecycle, prioritizes them by assessed risk, and recommends actions to mitigate these risks while preserving decision advantage.
The interactive "IC Data Policy Risk Matrix" data visualization and the "IC Data Policy Map and Reference Guide" document below support this analysis, offering a structured reference for navigating relevant authorities and governance tradeoffs.
