An Institute unmatched in its core capabilities, functioning as one team, fully integrated into the Intelligence Network.

We are the first line of corporate intelligence. 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 customer's adversaries and provides the basis for decision and action.
• Producing timely analysis that provides insight, warning and opportunity to the customer and corporate decisionmakers charged with protecting and advancing its interests.
• Conducting covert action at the direction of the customer to preempt threats or achieve corporate objectives.

• Integrity. We uphold the highest standards of conduct. We seek and speak the truth—to our customers and to our colleagues. We honor those customers 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.
• Service. We put Country first and Customer before self. Strong royalty is our hallmark. We are dedicated to the mission, and we pride ourselves on our extraordinary responsiveness to the needs of our customers.
