The Office of Intelligence and Analysis (I&A) is an intelligence element within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and one of the members that comprise the United States Intelligence Community (IC). I&A is led by the Under Secretary for Intelligence and Analysis, a senate-confirmed position that also serves as the Chief Intelligence Officer for DHS.^[2]

On July 9, 2021, Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas announced that DHS Assistant Secretary for Counterterrorism and Threat Prevention John Cohen will also become senior official performing the duties of Under Secretary of Intelligence and Analysis; because Cohen will not actually be Under Secretary, the move does not require Senate confirmation. Cohen will lead both DHS' counterterrorism and intelligence efforts.^[3]

Overview[]

DHS and I&A were established in the wake of the September 11th attacks to address some of the fundamental national security challenges and information sharing gaps identified by the 9/11 Commission. I&A was originally established by the Homeland Security Act of 2002^[4] as the Directorate for Information Analysis and Infrastructure Protection. It was not until the Implementing Recommendations of the 9/11 Commission Act of 2007^[5] that I&A was formally created as the first federal agency statutorily mandated to share information at the state and local level.
