Establish a real-time auditing capability for IC information sharing

Printed page 222 7. Intelligence Community

“The only long-term solution to the understandable tension between the need to share information and the need to protect intelligence sources and methods is a robust real-time auditing capability that electronically flags unauthorized access.”

What has happened

  1. Not started

    No real-time auditing capability that electronically flags unauthorized access to intelligence was created on any allowlisted record. The Intelligence Authorization Act for FY2026 addresses unauthorized access at section 6304, but by creating a new criminal offence at 18 U.S.C. 798B for willfully going upon closed or restricted IC property with intent to gather intelligence to the detriment of the United States — a physical trespass penalty, not an auditing capability on intelligence systems.
