The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) is the primary intelligence agency of the United States of America, which conducts a wide variety of operations from direct action to counter-intelligence. It is the technical successor of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), which operated during World War II. Their departments include the SAD (Special Activities Division) which conducts military action and intelligence operations, is the most clandestine department in the agency.

The agency is featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. In the mission "No Russian", players undertake the role of PFC. Joseph Allen, who is disguised as Alexei Borodin, to infiltrate the inner circle of Russian Ultranationalist Vladimir Makarov. It is one of three playable factions featured in the game. It is mentioned again when Shepherd is looking at a picture of the CIA Headquarters in Langley, Virginia in the opening cutscene of "Exodus".

In Call of Duty: Black Ops, the CIA's paramilitary branch (Special Activities Division) along with MACV-SOG are the main protagonists of the game. In the mission WMD, players take the role of Jason Hudson to find Nova-6.

They also appear in a joint operation, Operation Charybdis, along with the British Secret Intelligence Service, MI-6.

In Call of Duty: Black Ops II during the Grief mode of Zombies, they are in conflict with the CDC for survival after the aftermath of Richtofen's Grand Scheme.

In Call of Duty: Black Ops Declassified, the player takes control of Ryan Jackson, a CIA operative who takes down Jose Luiz Menendez, Raul Menendez' father.

In the Zombies mode of Call of Duty: Black Ops II there is no heard quotes or communication between the 4 operatives.
