I believe the answer is:

cia

(Other definitions for cia that I've seen before include "US investigative organisation" , "Famous intelligence agency in US" , "US intelligence organisation" , "US spy bureau" , "American agency concerned with Intelligence" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
