Below I have listed all agencies officially apart of Orson's intelligence community and their responsibilities, inspired by Novo's excellent factbook on the Wagain Intelligence Community and Oceara's list of her nation's agencies.

Regulatory Bureau (Regburo): Conducts surveillance on small businesses and major corporations to ensure they are complying with all post-revolutionary labor regulations. The Regburo cooperates with local soviets to investigate reports of wage theft, union busting, or abusive working conditions, and operates a vast network of informants who constantly monitor the actions of managers and executives.

Office of Military Intelligence (OMI): Gathers intelligence on foreign military capabilities and provides reports on enemy troop movements. OMI is divided into three departments: Army Intelligence, Naval Intelligence, and Aerospace Intelligence. Furthermore, OMI is involved in signals and geospatial intelligence, conducting mass data collection and surveillance via wiretapping and from its numerous satellites deployed in orbit.

Federal Security Bureau (FSB): The primary civilian intelligence agency, conducting surveillance on both domestic and foreign threats. FSB agents step in to aid local police forces in neutralizing particularly dangerous threats, such as terrorists or organized criminal syndicates. The FSB also operates clandestine cells in various foreign nations to gather human intelligence or conduct black operations, such as sabotage or assassinations.

Commission to Protect the Republic (COMPOR): Acquires intelligence on individuals or organizations presenting an existential danger to the Orsonian state. COMPOR's mandate is to ensure the continuity of democratic governance and prevent reactionary movements from reversing the reforms implemented during the Orsonian Revolution.

Office of Control: Acquires intelligence on entities exhibiting supernatural or anomalous characteristics which cannot be explained by the known laws of physics, or otherwise highly advanced technology. Control acts to neutralize supernatural entities endangering the Orsonian people and contain all anomalous objects within secure facilities.

Collection Service: Acquires intelligence on financial transactions within Orson, with the purpose of eliminating money laundering, shuttering illegal rackets, and lowering rates of tax evasion.

Office of the Inspector General (OIG): Acquires intelligence on corruption and criminal activity within the Federal government and foreign infiltration or sabotage of any public or private agency.

Great work Orson! Very interesting additions!
I feel as though OIG is either toothless or they take a very “the ends justify the means” approach, seeing as several of their fellow agencies break the law on a semi-regular basis. Then again, a lot of it’s international law rather than Orsonian law, so they probably don’t place as high a priority on that than they do corruption or foreign interference.
