(July 2022) Whistleblowers are vital to the IC's mission. Whistleblowers lawfully share information about potential wrongdoing by "saying  something" when they "see something" involving possible violations of law, rule, or regulation; gross mismanagement; gross waste of funds; abuse of authority; or dangers to public health or safety. By performing this crucial public service, whistleblowers help intelligence agencies address problems while also protecting national security information, and they assist inspectors general and Congress in performing their oversight responsibilities.
