After Congress created the Atomic Energy Commission (Atomic Energy Act of 1946, P.L. 79-585), the AEC stood up an Office of Security and Intelligence to liaise with the Joint Committee on Atomic Energy and with the CIA and FBI, and to set physical-security and classification standards. It is the direct institutional antecedent of today's OICI.
