Russia has moved to strengthen its national guard after the Wagner rebellion.
Wagner mercenaries launched a mutiny against Russian military leaders in June.
The Rosgvardiya answers directly to Putin, and was created in 2016 to combat internal security threats.
The planned reassignment, the report said, came after Putin met with police and security chiefs in the wake of the armed uprising by the Wagner mercenary group on June 23.
"The alleged restructuring of Russia's internal security forces suggests that the Kremlin is working to build an effective anti-rebellion force following Wagner's armed rebellion," the ISW said.
