CIA Vision, Mission & Values
Vision
One
Agency. One Community. An Agency unmatched in its core capabilities,
functioning as one team, fully integrated into the Intelligence
Community.
Mission
We
are the nation’s first line of defense. We accomplish what others
cannot accomplish and go where others cannot go. We carry out our
mission by:
- Collecting
information that reveals the plans, intentions and capabilities of our
adversaries and provides the basis for decision and action.
- Producing
timely analysis that provides insight, warning and opportunity to the
President and decisionmakers charged with protecting and advancing
America’s interests.
- Conducting covert action at the direction of the President to preempt threats or achieve US policy objectives.
Core Values
- Service.
We put Country first and Agency before self. Quiet patriotism is our
hallmark. We are dedicated to the mission, and we pride ourselves on
our extraordinary responsiveness to the needs of our customers.
- Integrity.
We uphold the highest standards of conduct. We seek and speak the
truth—to our colleagues and to our customers. We honor those Agency
officers who have come before us and we honor the colleagues with whom
we work today.
- Excellence.
We hold ourselves—and each other—to the highest standards. We embrace
personal accountability. We reflect on our performance and learn from
that reflection.
