THE OFFICE OF SECURITY - A HISTORICAL NOTE
Upon the establishment of the CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE
AGENCY in 1947 by Act of Congress, the AGENCY inherited from its
immediate predecessors, the CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE GROUP
(GIG) and the STRATEGIC SERVICES UNIT (SSU), several small of-
fices which had security functions. These offices were more or less
merged to form the EXECUTIVE FOR INSPECTION AND SECURITY
of CIA. The responsibility of the EXECUTIVE was physical and
personnel security; it had an extremely limited investigative capability.
Since 1946, the Federal Bureau of Investigation had conducted
background investigations of CIG and CIA applicants, and continued
to do so, except for the calendar year 1948, until December 1950.
In early 1948, the Security Office of CIA was suddenly faced with the
problem of conducting its own investigations of prospective CIA
employees. In order to meet this requirement, a number of experi-
enced investigators were recruited

The Polygraph program of the Office which began with one
trained examiner in 1948 who concentrated almost exclusively on
SI clearances, has grown to the point where it encompasses all CIA
employees
Paralleling the growth of skill in interrogation has been the
development in the other technical field of counter audio surveillance.
Also initiated in 1948 with the assignment of one person, and develop-
ing through branch to divisional level, TECHNICAL DIVISION now has
professional security officers, many with degrees in their
field, but all with skills developed only through exposure to this
constantly growing threat of audio penetration, made more complex
by the ever-increasing sophistication of the electronic equipment being
developed, and the ever-increasing use of this technique by opposition
services.
Beginning in 1951, under the then SPECIAL SECURITY DIVISION,
later re-named SECURITY SUPPORT DIVISION, now the DEPUTY
DIRECTOR OF SECURITY FOR INVESTIGATIONS AND OPERATIONAL

In 1957, based on the physical growth of the Office, as well
as the experience acquired over the years, a major reorganization
was completed to restructure the Office of Security on a more
functional basis. This resulted in the establishment of two DEPUTY
DIRECTORS OF SECURITY, one responsible for PERSONNEL and
PHYSICAL SECURITY; the other for INVESTIGATIONS AND OPERA-
TIONAL SUPPORT. In essence, this reorganization formalized what
had been a working distinction for some time. DD/S(I0S) was respon-
sible for the conduct of investigations and special inquiries and
DD/S(PPS) encompassed the
polygraph and counter audio functions, all aspects of physical security
and the approval of and continual monitoring of staff employees of the
AGENCY.
A principal function of the former SECURITY DIVISION of the
former EXECUTIVE FOR INSPECTION AND SECURITY, now exercised
by PERSONNEL SECURITY DIVISION, has been to implement the
personnel security standards of the AGENCY in the selection and
retention of staff and contract employees. Personnel security policy,
inherited initially from CIA's predecessor organizations' General
25X1 Order
which set forth security criteria for employment,
has grown over the years in sophistication and complexity. In its
implementation of CIA policy, and in conformity with the various

Presidential Executive Orders (9835 of 1947 and 10450 of 1953) which
established uniform standards for access to classified information,
PERSONNEL SECURITY DIVISION, in its appraisal function, examines
prospective employees to assure that they meet the security standards
demanded by the AGENCY, and with an awareness of the suitability
and stability factors, which so often can color a security determination.
During the decade 1955-1965, the developments in the AGENCY
itself, and the corresponding reactions in the Office of Security,
underlined the necessity both for flexibility and for centralized control.
25X1 The growth of
in the mid-1950's - the increasing diversi-
fication of AGENCY proprietaries requiring the assignment of security
officers - the development of new AGENCY components such as DD/S&T
and OSA - the staging of large DD/P operations in Asia and Latin
America which called for massive security support in terms of manpower
and effort - all these served to point the need for another reorganization
in 1965, to permit the Office to align its forces to meet the new demands
being placed on it. This reorganization culminated in the creation of
three DEPUTY DIRECTORS. DEPUTY DIRECTOR FOR INVESTIGA-
TIONS AND OPERATIONAL SUPPORT remained essentially unchanged.
The other DEPUTY DIRECTORATES deal with PHYSICAL, TECHNICAL
AND OVERSEAS SECURITY and with PERSONNEL AND INDUSTRIAL
SECURITY, respectively. The establishment of a major component

of the Office, INDUSTRIAL SECURITY DIVISION, to establish and
implement the security program for Agency contractors, is intended
to centralize a security responsibility which had been held by a number
of other components, and is a reflection of the AGENCY' s growing
involvement with the commercial world in the development of tech-
nological means to fill the requirements of intelligence collection.
To assist the Director of Security and his Deputies, a number
of Staffs have been created over the years.
Since 1951, the SECURITY RESEARCH STAFF, has provided the Office
with a counterintelligence service in the detection and exposure of
hostile attempts to penetrate the AGENCY. The EXECUTIVE OFFICER
and his staff, since 1952, have provided support to the entire Office.
In 1952, the ADMINISTRATION AND TRAINING STAFF was established
to centralize the administrative, finance and personnel functions of
the Office, as well as to insure the continued training of security
officers.
The mission of the Office of Security is to insure the security
of the AGENCY - its personnel, information and operations. To ac-
complish that mission, the Office, over a relatively short period, has

gone through several structural changes and has increased in strength

same - a constant goal and challenge which the personnel of the
Office seek to attain in a great variety of ways, from the background

educational lecture of an employee -

THE DIRECTOR OF SECURITY
The functions and responsibilities of the DIRECTOR OF
SECURITY, which in their implementation have grown and diversi-
fied with the maturity of the AGENCY, are essentially the prepara-
tion and execution of the AGENCY'S security program as shown in
detail in
In addition to these internal CIA responsibilities, the DIREC-
TOR OF CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE has delegated to the DIRECTOR
OF SECURITY the responsibility for initiation of appropriate investiga-
tive action and damage assessment in the event of an unauthorized
disclosure affecting U. S. intelligence sources and methods. This
responsibility was formalized in 1959 by the appointment of the
DIRECTOR OF SECURITY as CHAIRMAN of the SECURITY COM-
MITTEE of the UNITED STATES INTELLIGENCE BOARD (USIB), to
advise the U. S. intelligence community on security matters of common
concern and to promote uniform security standards and practices within
the community.
A more recently acquired function of the DIRECTOR OF SECURITY
is the formulation of security policies for the DCI to recommend in
a joint CIA/DOD program.

USIB SECURITY COMMITTEE
AUTHORITY: DCID 1/11, 24 March 1959
RESPONSIBILITY:
1. Recommend to the USIB security policy, standards,
practices and procedures for the protection of intelligence, intel-
ligence information, intelligence sources and methods.
2. Consider damage to national security resulting from un-
authorized disclosure of intelligence information and recommend
corrective action.
DETAILS:
The Security Committee was established to improve the security
posture of the entire intelligence community by raising the level of
security in all USIB member agencies. Recognizing the necessity for
continual effort to maintain these standards as well as the need for
uniformity throughout the community, the Committee is engaged in a
continuing effort to monitor and improve the security programs of
member agencies. The Committee is chaired by the Director of
Security, CIA and its members include representatives from State,
DIA, Army, Navy, Air Force, NSA, FBI and AEC. A few examples

A. Established standard terminology for perver-
sion for use by all community polygraph operators.
D. To improve and standardize personnel security
criteria for compartmented intelligence, the Committee
is currently considering a uniform regulation (IBSEC-
PR/8) with which all member agencies must comply,
E. In the field of physical security, a standard
physical survey form has been adopted. In the future,
it is planned to attempt to institute uniform physical
security standards for the community - a difficult task.

G. To improve the security education programs of
the community as a service of common concern, the
Committee is preparing a study of Soviet/Satellite
harassments and provocations directed at U. S. person-
nel in Bloc posts. This should not only provide insight
into Soviet Modus operandi, but will give the community
source material for the defensive security briefings to
be given to all personnel sent to denied areas.
The Committee's function is to improve, to make uniform and
to monitor the security practices of the U. S. intelligence community.
To perform these functions it constantly reviews the physical -
personnel - documentary and technical security policies under which
the community operates in an effort to correct deficiencies and close
the gaps in the fence - recognizing that if one agency is weak - the
entire community is threatened.

PERSONNEL SECURITY DIVISION
I. HISTORY
Personnel Security and Physical Security were practically
the only responsibilities of the Office of Security when the Central
Intelligence Group was established in 1946. Security operations
were started at this time by the formation of the CIG Security
Division under the Executive for Personnel and Administration.
In November 1946 the security operations of CIG and
Strategic Services Unit were combined under the Chief, Security
Division. In 1947 the responsibility for Physical and Personnel
Security in CIA was established under an Executive for Inspection
and Security, except that OSO security matters were handled
separately under the guidance of OSO. In the Fall of 1947 respon-
sibility for overt cases of OSO was transferred to the Executive for
Inspection and Security, but OSO continued to guide the covert cases.
Since 1948, the Personnel Security Division has evolved into a
Division consisting of
of
with three Branches and a staff
assigned to the Office of the Chief.
