Federal Bureau of Investigation

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is the principal federal law enforcement and domestic intelligence agency of the United States and part of the Department of Justice. It is headquartered in Washington, D.C., and Director Kash Patel has led it since February 2025. The FBI investigates federal crimes and runs counterterrorism, counterintelligence and cyber programs. Its Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Division opened in Clarksburg, West Virginia, in 1995 and holds national fingerprint and criminal records systems. The bureau's data center program consolidates older facilities into the Clarksburg campus and a Pocatello, Idaho, data center that anchors its western operations.

Federal Bureau of Investigation History:

  • In July 2025, the FBI and the General Services Administration selected the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, D.C., as the bureau's next headquarters.
  • In November 2019, the FBI opened its Grey Wolf data center in Pocatello, Idaho.
  • In October 2017, the FBI broke ground on the Pocatello data center.
  • Founded in 1908 in Washington, D.C.
