OED Capabilities
Analytical Group (AG)
The mission of the AG is to conduct sharply focused technical and cyber intelligence analysis, leveraging multiple sources of data, unique analytic tools, applications, and capabilities to directly support stakeholder requirements and priorities. 
Production
The AG publishes reports that result in numerous investigational and operational leads and technical findings, and highlight trends that enable predictive analysis, including: 
• Cyber Intelligence Reports (highlights of activities/trends to enable predictive analysis)
• Cyber Profiles (summaries of entity findings with attribution supporting LE/CI cyber investigations and operations)
• Operational Lead Reports (summaries of technical findings, including identification of new operational leads)
• Cyber Intelligence products issued jointly with multiple Government Agencies and Partners. 
Collaboration
The AG partners with the DC3 Defense Industrial Base (DIB) Collaborative Information Sharing Environment and the 
DC3 Cyber Forensics Lab to protect critical technologies and information, and is central to the release of malware 
signatures and decoders which allow DIB partners to defend their networks from malicious actors.
AG Quarterly Meeting
The AG hosts attendees from DoD and federal-level law enforcement and cyber agencies to discuss relevant and emerging 
cyber threat items of interest.
