Intelligence & Information Sharing - Needs, Goals & Risks

Unauthorised disclosures of classified intelligence are seen as doing significant damage to U.S. security. However, if intelligence is not made available to government officials who need it to do their jobs, enormous expenditures on collection, analysis, and dissemination are wasted. This book focuses on information acquired, analysed, and disseminated by agencies of the U.S. Intelligence Community. Better information sharing throughout the Federal Government and especially among the agencies of the Intelligence Community has become a priority for both the Executive Branch and Congress.
