                Constitution and the laws of the United States of 
                America, I hereby direct as follows:

                Section 1. Establishment of the Cyber Threat 
                Intelligence Integration Center. The Director of 
                National Intelligence (DNI) shall establish a Cyber 
                Threat Intelligence Integration Center (CTIIC). 
                Executive departments and agencies (agencies) shall 
                support the DNI's efforts to establish the CTIIC, 
                including by providing, as appropriate, personnel and 
                resources needed for the CTIIC to reach full operating 
                capability by the end of fiscal year 2016.

                Sec. 2. Responsibilities of the Cyber Threat 
                Intelligence Integration Center. The CTIIC shall:

                    (a) provide integrated all-source analysis of 
                intelligence related to foreign cyber threats or 
                related to cyber incidents affecting U.S. national 
                interests;
                    (b) support the National Cybersecurity and 
                Communications Integration Center, the National Cyber 
                Investigative Joint Task Force, U.S. Cyber Command, and 
                other relevant United States Government entities by 
                providing access to intelligence necessary to carry out 
                their respective missions;
                    (c) oversee the development and implementation of 
                intelligence sharing capabilities (including systems, 
                programs, policies, and standards) to enhance shared 
                situational awareness of intelligence related to 
                foreign cyber threats or related to cyber incidents 
                affecting U.S. national interests among the 
                organizations referenced in subsection (b) of this 
                section;
                    (d) ensure that indicators of malicious cyber 
                activity and, as appropriate, related threat reporting 
                contained in intelligence channels are downgraded to 
                the lowest classification possible for distribution to 
                both United States Government and U.S. private sector 
                entities through the mechanism described in section 4 
                of Executive Order 13636 of February 12, 2013 
                (Improving Critical Infrastructure Cybersecurity); and
                    (e) facilitate and support interagency efforts to 
                develop and implement coordinated plans to counter 
                foreign cyber threats to U.S. national interests using 
                all instruments of national power, including 
                diplomatic, economic, military, intelligence, homeland 
                security, and law enforcement activities.

                Sec. 3. Implementation. (a) Agencies shall provide the 
                CTIIC with all intelligence related to foreign cyber 
                threats or related to cyber incidents affecting U.S. 
                national interests, subject to applicable law and 
                policy. The CTIIC shall access, assess, use, retain, 
                and disseminate such information, in a manner that 
                protects privacy and civil liberties and is consistent 
                with applicable law, Executive Orders, Presidential 
                directives, and guidelines, such as guidelines 
                established under section 102A(b) of the National 
                Security Act of 1947, as amended, Executive Order 12333 
                of December 4, 1981 (United

[[Page 11318]]

                States Intelligence Activities), as amended, and 
                Presidential Policy Directive-28; and that is 
                consistent with the need to protect sources and 
                methods.

                    (b) Within 90 days of the date of this memorandum, 
                the DNI, in consultation with the Secretary of State, 
                the Secretary of Defense, the Attorney General, the 
                Secretary of Homeland Security, the Director of the 
                Central Intelligence Agency, the Director of the 
                Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Director of 
                the National Security Agency shall provide a status 
                report to the Director of the Office of Management and 
                Budget and the Assistant to the President for Homeland 
                Security and Counterterrorism on the establishment of 
                the CTIIC. This report shall further refine the CTIIC's 
                mission, roles, and responsibilities, consistent with 
                this memorandum, ensuring that those roles and 
                responsibilities are appropriately aligned with other 
                Presidential policies as well as existing policy 
                coordination mechanisms.

                Sec. 4. Privacy and Civil Liberties Protections. 
                Agencies providing information to the CTIIC shall 
                ensure that privacy and civil liberties protections are 
                provided in the course of implementing this memorandum. 
                Such protections shall be based upon the Fair 
                Information Practice Principles or other privacy and 
                civil liberties policies, principles, and frameworks as 
                they apply to each agency's activities.

                Sec. 5. General Provisions. (a) Nothing in this 
                memorandum shall be construed to impair or otherwise 
                affect:

(i) the authority granted by law to an executive department, agency, or the 
head thereof; or

(ii) the functions of the Director of the Office of Management and Budget 
relating to budgetary, administrative, or legislative proposals.

                    (b) This memorandum shall be implemented consistent 
                with applicable law and subject to the availability of 
                appropriations.
                    (c) This memorandum is not intended to, and does 
                not, create any right or benefit, substantive or 
                procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any 
                party against the United States, its departments, 
                agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or 
                agents, or any other person.
                    (d) The DNI is hereby authorized and directed to 
                publish this memorandum in the Federal Register.
