This is a classified report. We determined that the Office of Intelligence and Analysis continues to provide effective oversight of the department-wide intelligence system and maintains programs to monitor ongoing security practices. In addition, the United States Coast Guard is in the process of migrating its intelligence users to a system that is jointly managed by the Defense Intelligence Agency and the National Geospatial Agency. However, we determined that DHS’ information security program for intelligence systems is not effective, based on the maturity model included in this year’s reporting instructions. Specifically, DHS’ continuous monitoring tools for its intelligence system are not interoperable. DHS has not documented procedures, established formal training, and instituted qualitative and quantitative measures for continuous monitoring of its intelligence systems. We made no recommendations.
