CIA director John Brennan has ordered for a major revamp of the agency aiming to impose greater accountability on managers and improve cyber capabilities.
According to BBC, the director said, in a memo to staff, that the changes are driven by a wider range of threats and the impact of technological advancements.
The biggest change is the breakdown of the division between analysts and operators.
Under the new plans, those who run operations and those who interpret the intelligence they gather would be brought together in 10 "Mission Centres", as opposed to working in separate division and offices as before.
Brennan urged the agency to "embrace and leverage the digital revolution" and announced the creation of the Directorate of Digital Innovation.
