Operational structure
Head of organization Malory Archer

The International Secret Intelligence Service (ISIS) is the workplace of the main characters of Archer. It is quite obviously a spy agency, with international offices (Mole Hunt).

ISIS Headquarters is located in New York City and operates above a dry-cleaners wash & fold. Washing machines disguise the primary entrance, which is an elevator.

The security system at ISIS is depicted as weak. When Archer infiltrates the office during the night, he successfully enters the mainframe by using a registred voice of Cyril "Mole Hunt". The password "Guest" seems to be widely used to access the ISIS computers "Mole Hunt," "Training Day."

TriviaEdit

  • The carpet of ISIS is often referred as being filthy by both ISIS and ODIN employees. "A Going Concern." This could be attributed to the fact that Malory had the cleaning staff killed after they unionised. "The Rock."
  • GPS Coordinates for ISIS headquarters appear to be 33.806333, -84.344165 which is actually an address in Atlanta, Georgia where Archer is created.
  • ISIS, like ODIN, is the name of an ancient deity. Isis is an ancient Egyptian goddess.
  • ISIS is also the name of the hotel George Sr. escaped to in the 3rd episode of the second season in Arrested Development
  • Originally thought of as another US government intelligence agency it is clear throughout the entire series that ISIS operates more as a private military/intelligence company that does multiple "contracts" for different world governments and multi-billion dollar companies, with the exception of the Soviet Union and its proxy states. It does seem to have strong ties to the U.S. government though. In the episode "Coyote Lovely" after Archer helps a wanted criminal smuggle a load of illegal aliens into the country and then escape from the U.S. Border Patrol, one of the Border Patrol agents gets a call from his "boss' boss' boss" who informs him that Archer has total legal immunity for the incident.
  • In the Wind Cries Mary Pam is angry when no one fills out there peer reviews, angrily stating that only "Ten people work in this whole goddamn chicken shit outfit." This is a reference to the fact so few employees are ever seen."
