Director of National Intelligence
Intelligence Community Directives
The Director of National Intelligence (DNI) established Intelligence Community Directives (ICDs) as the principal means by which the DNI provides guidance, policy, and direction to the Intelligence Community. The DNI also directed that all Director of Central Intelligence Directives (DCIDs) remain in force until canceled or superseded by an ICD. The contents of an ICD may be issued in an Intelligence Community Policy Memorandum prior to its formal publication in an ICD.
