(U//FOUO) Welcome to the Data Acquisition Directorate. I am
, the Director. My Deputy Director is Jim Cusick. We are
both honored and excited to be leading this organization in our
crucial mission. You, the work force, should be proud of what you
are doing for the nation. During the middle of June we held two
Town Meetings for the DA work force. Now we would like to give
the rest of the NSA work force a Data Acquisition update. In the
coming days you will read a series of four articles from the Data
Acquisition Directorate. The series will begin with "The Collection
Strategies and Requirements Center (CSRC)." The CSRC is DA's
"front door" when it comes to collection requirements. This article
will also show our close working ties with Customer Relationships,
Analysis and Production, and the Extended Enterprise.
(U//FOUO) The next two articles will discuss technologies. The
challenges presented by new digital network technologies will be
presented in "Digital Network Exploitation (DNE), Digital Network
Intelligence (DNI), and Computer Network Exploitation (CNE)."
"The Evolution of HF" clearly demonstrates the importance of one
of the oldest means of communications. The final article addresses
the transition of the National SIGINT Collection Center (NSCC) to
the Meade Operations Center (MOC). This is just a small sample of
what's going on in Data Acquisition. Watch our website for future
articles.
