Introduction The National Security Agency (NSA) is considered one of the largest components of the US intelligence community. It is primarily responsible for gathering intelligence reports from detailed communications with active involvement of various intelligence tools. It was founded in 1952 by the code-breaking effort adopted by a handful of military and civilian officers, and over time, the agency grew in stature and marked its position to obtain the signal intelligence role, also known as SIGNIT. All this is a result of the initiatives taken by the congress and in reality it is the congress that has helped provide the necessary framework for the NSA to carry out its various activities and the laws enacted skillfully guide the limits of the NSA.
