The
National Security Agency is winning its long-running secret war on
encryption, using supercomputers, technical trickery, court orders and
behind-the-scenes persuasion to undermine the major tools protecting the
privacy of everyday communications in the Internet age, according to newly
disclosed documents. The agency has circumvented or cracked much of the
encryption, or digital scrambling, that guards global commerce and banking
systems, protects sensitive data like trade secrets and medical records,
and automatically secures the e-mails, Web searches, Internet chats and
phone calls of Americans and others around the world, the documents show. Many
users assume — or have been assured by Internet companies — that their data
is safe from prying eyes, including those of the government, and the N.S.A.
wants to keep it that way. The agency treats its recent successes in
deciphering protected information as among its most closely guarded
secrets, restricted to those cleared for a highly classified program
code-named Bullrun, according to the documents, provided by Edward J.
Snowden, the former N.S.A. contractor.  READ MORE »
