This document is a page from a book manuscript (likely by Edward Jay Epstein based on the filename prefix 'Epst' and ISBN) discussing Edward Snowden's transition from the CIA to private contracting for the NSA. It details how intelligence agencies outsourced IT work to companies like Dell to bypass budget limits, and how Snowden's existing top-secret clearance made him a valuable recruit for Dell's operations in Japan in 2009. The page bears a House Oversight Bates stamp, indicating it was part of a congressional inquiry.
