National Security Agency
What is the NSA?
The National Security Agency is the Nation's cryptologic organization. It coordinates, directs, and performs highly specialized activities to protect U.S. information systems andproduce foreign intelligence information. A high technology organization, NSA is on the frontiers of communications and data processing. It is also one of the most important centersof foreign language analysis and research within the Government.
Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) is a unique discipline with a long and storied past. SIGINT's modern era dates to World War II, when the U.S. broke the Japanese military code andlearned of plans to invade Midway Island. This intelligence allowed the U.S. to defeat Japan's superior fleet. The use of SIGINT is believed to have directly contributed to shorteningthe war by at least one year. Today, SIGINT continues to play an important role in maintaining the superpower status of the United States.
As the world becomes more and more technology-oriented, the Information Systems Security (INFOSEC) mission becomes increasingly challenging. This mission involves protectingall classified and sensitive information that is stored or sent through U.S. Government equipment. INFOSEC professionals go to great lengths t o make certain that Governmentsystems remain impenetrable. This support spans from the highest levels of U.S. Government to the individual warfighter in the field.
NSA conducts one of the U.S. Government's leading research and development programs. Some of the Agency's R&D projects have significantly advanced the state of the art in thescientific and business worlds. NSA's early interest in cryptanalytic research led to the first large-scale computer and the first solid-state computer, predecessors to the moderncomputer. NSA pioneered efforts in flexible storage capabilities, which led to the development of the tape cassette. NSA also made ground-breaking developments in semiconductortechnology and remains a world leader in many technological fields.
Who is the NSA?
NSA employs the country's premier codemakers and codebreakers. It is said to be the largest employer of mathematicians in the United States and perhaps the world. Its
mathematicians contribute directly to the two missions of the Agency: designing cipher systems that will protect the integrity of U.S. information systems and searching forweaknesses in adversaries' systems and codes.
Technology and the world change rapidly, and great emphasis is placed on staying ahead of these changes with employee training programs. The National Cryptologic School isindicative of the Agency's commitment to professional development. The school not only provides unique training for the NSA workforce, but it also serves as a training resource forthe entire Department of Defense. NSA sponsors employees for bachelor and graduate studies at the Nation's top universities and colleges, and selected Agency employees attend thevarious war colleges of the U.S. Armed Forces.
Most NSA/CSS employees, both civili an and military, are headquartered at Fort Meade, Maryland, centrally located between Baltimore and Washington, DC. Its workforce representsan unusual combination of specialties: analysts, engineers, physicists, mathematicians, linguists, computer scientists, researchers, as well as customer relations specialists, securityofficers, data flow experts, managers, administrative and clerical assistants.
