Standardizing Our SIGAD/PDDG Naming Conventions

SUMMARY

"GOLDPOINT 2" is a new database of standard naming conventions that analysts must now use to describe how information was intercepted. Standardized naming conventions will allow the agency to track data more accurately; in turn, better tracking will prove programs' effectiveness, which can be used as ammunition when requesting additional funding for these programs from Congress.
