National Intelligence Strategy of the United States of America: Transformation Through Integration and Innovation

摘要

The new concept of 'national intelligence' codified by the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act passed by Congress in 2004 has its origins in the tragedy of September 11, 2001 and President Bush's National Security Strategy of the United States of America. The President signed the new law with the expectation that 'our vast intelligence enterprise will become more unified, coordinated, and effective.' Our strategy is to integrate, through intelligence policy, doctrine, and technology, the different enterprises of the Intelligence Community. It encompasses current intelligence activities as well as future capabilities to ensure that we are more effective in the years ahead than we are today. The fifteen strategic objectives outlined in this strategy can be differentiated as mission objectives and enterprise objectives. Mission objectives relate to our efforts to predict, penetrate, and preempt threats to our national security and to assist all who make and implement US national security policy, fight our wars, protect our nation, and enforce our laws in the implementation of national policy goals. Enterprise objectives relate to our capacity to maintain competitive advantages over states and forces that threaten the security of our nation.
