WASHINGTON TIIMES:The
National Security Agency, which is in the middle of moving into a new “nerve center” on its Fort Meade campus, says it is still ready for whatever foreign threat may emerge against the Nov. 8 midterm elections.
“We’re ready to go,”
NSA Director Gen.
Paul M. Nakasone said in an interview in the “battle bridge” of the new National Security Operations Center.
Commonly referred to as the
agency’s “nerve center,” the facility provides the
NSA with a real-time window into government operations across the globe and allows the
agency to respond to a crisis in an instant.
The
NSA is America’s spy agency focused on smashing codes, intercepting secret messages, and leveraging computer operations to guard the U.S. against threats coming from places such as China, Iran and Russia.
“What’s
NSA’s competitive advantage? We make code and we break code better than anyone in the world,” Gen.
Nakasone said. “That’s what we do.”
