HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_019696.jpg

This document appears to be page 208 from a book titled 'How America Lost Its Secrets' (likely by Edward Jay Epstein, indicated by the filename 'Epst_...'), produced as part of a House Oversight investigation. The text discusses the NSA security breach committed by Edward Snowden ('mere analyst in training') in Oahu and references his subsequent presence in Moscow. It analyzes how reliance on outside contractors created a 'back door' for the breach.
