Documents / FOIA release
This is a report of investigation by the Central Intelligence Agency's Office of Inspector General, dated 18 July 2014. It covers Agency access to Senate Select Committee on Intelligence staff files on RDINet, the network built for the Senate review of the rendition, detention and interrogation program. The report found that five Agency employees improperly accessed the SSCI Majority shared drive and that three IT staff lacked candor. It also found no factual basis for the CIA crimes report against SSCI staff.

RDI IT team reviewed ways the SSCI staff could have accessed the spreadsheet and hypothesized that there may have been a Google search appliance vulnerability. The team discovered that the Google search appliance was capable of searching both the SSCI side as well as the RDI team's side of the Spartan Gate database. The results of Google searches showed documents from both the SSCI and Agency sides of RDINet and included a link to cached versions of the documents. When clicked, the cache link presented the text of the document in question. The RDI IT Team implemented a fix for this vulnerability in April 2013. The CIA requested that the document be destroyed in both paper and electronic format and the SSCI staffer agreed to do so.
