SCS and Executive Protection

SUMMARY

The Special Collection Service collects SIGINT from covert bases located at U.S. embassies and consulates around the world, staffed with personnel from both the NSA and CIA. When VIPs travel, the SCS's Special Operations Division focuses on collecting communications intelligence surrounding the visit, including surveilling the communications of the host country's police and security services.
