OverviewEstablished in 1947 by President Harry Truman, the Central Intelligence Agency, or CIA, is America's international intelligence organization. Charged with intelligence gathering and analysis abroad as well as covert action against foreign governments, the CIA reports directly to the president and to the National Security Council.
