The National Security Agency (NSA) is a United States intelligence agency responsible for collecting, analyzing, and protecting national security information. It operates under the jurisdiction of the Department of Defense and is one of the most secretive intelligence agencies in the country. The NSA's primary mission is to gather and process foreign signals intelligence (SIGINT) through various means, including electronic surveillance, codebreaking, and data analysis.
The agency is known for its expertise in cryptanalysis and is responsible for monitoring and deciphering communications to gather intelligence on foreign governments, organizations, and individuals. The NSA also conducts defensive operations to protect U.S. government communications and information systems from unauthorized access or cyberattacks.
The NSA's activities have been a subject of public debate and controversy due to its extensive surveillance capabilities and the potential implications for privacy and civil liberties. In 2013, classified documents leaked by former NSA contractor Edward Snowden revealed widespread surveillance programs, sparking a global discussion on privacy and government surveillance practices.
