CIA Reorganization Prioritizes Cyberoperations

“John Ratcliffe, the CIA director, announced on Tuesday that the agency was reorganizing to ensure that it can adopt technology faster and further develop offensive cyberoperations division,” the New York Times reports.

“He promised that the agency would use new technology more aggressively and take ‘smart risks,’ even as it prioritized human decision making and oversight of artificial intelligence and other innovations.”

“The changes are intended to strengthen the CIA’s ability to collect intelligence by gaining access to additional computer networks or communications, or even just locating additional potential human sources.”
