Summary/Abstract: The author, who was Assistant Secretary General for Intelligence and Security, approaches the most significant and fundamental reform in the history of allied intelligence, launched at the NATO summit meeting in Warsaw, in July 2016. In response to the challenging threat environment posed by an assertive Russia and the rise of terrorism and instability in the south, the allies are fundamentally adapting how NATO organises and analyses intelligence, the key element of this reform being the creation of a new division at NATO Headquarters, consisting of two pillars: intelligence (with the merged strands of military and civilian intelligence) and security (the NATO Office of Security). In this respect, he points out the special role played by the Joint Intelligence and Security Division (JISD), an intelligence structure established last year.
