AFAICT the NCSC is independent from the CIA, though both do fall under the DNI. And the DCSA does have "agency" in its name. ;)
The hierarchy became more complex and confusing after the 9/11 reorganization, and apparently has continued to do so.
- dragonwriter 5y agoYou left out the FBI, which doesn't have “counterintelligence” in the name but is nevertheless the primary civilian counterintelligence agency.
- wahern 5y agoWithout knowing more, I would think most counterintelligence work is still done by the FBI, CIA, NSA, and maybe DIA. But I was replying to the specific claim that there were no "designated ... agencies", where I interpreted designated to mean specialized. The FBI, CIA, and NSA are monolithic organizations.
