As part of the US intelligence community, the National Security Agency focuses on signals intelligence, which involves the interception of communication signals between people, machines, or both. NSA is the undisputed leader in this field. Their signals intelligence activities are never directed at American citizens. Cybersecurity is Their other specialty, which is all about protecting American systems from prying eyes.
What is the NSA's mission? The most simple, concise answer is that they are here to SAVE LIVES. They never want another 9/11. That’s the biggest, most important, most vital mission.
