View

This document appears to be page 177 of a report or book (potentially by Edward Jay Epstein regarding Edward Snowden) submitted to House Oversight. It details the vulnerabilities of the NSA to 'insider threats' and Russian intelligence (SVR/KGB) recruitment tactics, specifically targeting system administrators. It discusses the 2011 OPM hack as a method for identifying potential recruits via Standard Form 86 data and links Edward Snowden to various anti-surveillance groups like Wikileaks and the TOR project in 2012-2013.
