FROM:
Deputy Chief, Analytic Services and Technology (S24)
Run Date: 12/21/2006
(U//FOUO) Analysts at NSA have often wondered about the origin of traffic that seems to
magically appear in their queues on a daily basis. But have you ever wondered where the host of
essential tools used to analyze that traffic -- such as MAINWAY, PINWALE, FASCIA, and AGILITY
(just to name a few) -- are maintained? Moreover, have you considered who is responsible for
making non-SIGINT classified and open-source information (i.e., collateral) accessible to the
Agency?
(U) What We Do
(S//REL) Analytic Services and Technology (AS&T) is the home of these aforementioned
products and services. Along with maintaining these systems you use every day, AS&T also
provides analysts with lots of other products and services, for instance:
improved access to voice processing tools and services;
access to key databases containing Digital Network Intelligence (DNI) data and metadata
used in target development activities; and
customized digital geographic data.
We continue to champion analysts' access to improved high-powered workstations with multiscreen monitors and associated capabilities throughout the Analysis and Production (A&P) global
workplace.
(U) Who's Who in AS&T
(U//FOUO) AS&T, formerly S202, was recently re-designated as S24 . There are three divisions
in AS&T:
1. Advanced Intelligence Research Services , (AIRS - S241), provides essential
collateral intelligence information required by the A&P global enterprise;
2. Analytic Technologies for the Enterprise (S242) provides and maintains integrated
tools for analysts and;
3. Technology Management Services (S243) is responsible for analytic technology
transition, insertion and support .
The daily efforts of the personnel in these three organizations provide the vital link between
analysts and breaking technology through capability development, deployment, and continued
support.
(U) For More Information...
(U//FOUO) For additional information regarding the roles and responsibilities of any organization
assigned to AS&T/S24, or for information regarding any of the analytic tools and services
