IC personnel or customers must be able co-discover intelligence, information and analyses that address their requirement or aid in mission accomplishment. Select the best answer.

• A. Co-discovery is sufficient
• B. Access must be restricted to a small group
• C. Products must be discoverable by those who might need them
• D. Products should be archived and rarely accessed

Answer: (C)

The main point is making sure the right people can find and access the intelligence products they need. Co-discovery alone doesn’t guarantee broad reach or timely access across all who might require the information, which can leave gaps in awareness and slow decision-making. Restricting access to a small group further limits usefulness and undermines mission support. Archiving and rarely accessing results defeats the purpose of providing timely, actionable intelligence. When products are discoverable by those who might need them, they can address requirements and aid mission accomplishment effectively.
