Characterization and Vulnerability Assessments: Performing comprehensive assessments to identify potential vulnerabilities in WMD programs, thereby informing protective measures.

CBRN Intelligence Support: Offering specialized expertise in Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) intelligence to bolster situational awareness and operational preparedness.

Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) will play a crucial role in developing innovative analytical frameworks and collection strategies that span various mission areas within the directorate. Their efforts will encompass the evaluation of emerging technologies, techniques, and methodologies, ensuring that multi-intelligence integration is conducted effectively and efficiently.
