HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_020272.jpg
This document appears to be a page from a book or investigative report (possibly by Edward Jay Epstein regarding Edward Snowden) submitted as evidence to the House Oversight Committee. It analyzes how Edward Snowden obtained passwords to secure NSA vaults, ruling out his time at Dell or his system admin privileges at Booz Allen. The text explores the 'Unwitting Accomplice Possibility,' featuring an interview with a former Booz Allen executive who deems it highly unlikely that co-workers would voluntarily share passwords with Snowden, leading to a discussion of potential technical methods like 'key loggers.'

This document is page 150 from the book 'How America Lost Its Secrets' by Edward Jay Epstein, stamped with 'HOUSE_OVERSIGHT'. It discusses theories on how Edward Snowden obtained passwords to secure NSA vaults, specifically 'Level 3 documents.' The text details his employment transition from Dell to Booz Allen and explores the possibility that he unwittingly or deceptively used co-workers to gain access, noting that the NSA informed Congress in 2014 that three colleagues spoke to the FBI about potential deception.
