What's the NSA?
The National Security Agency/Central Security Service is America’s cryptologic organization. It coordinates, directs, and performs highly specialized activities to protect U.S. government information systems and produce foreign signals intelligence information. A high technology organization, NSA is on the frontiers of communications and data processing. It is also one of the most important centers of foreign language analysis and research within the government.

Balancing career and family is important. NSA supports their workforce and families in coping with the complexities of work and life. They offer a wide array of award-winning programs and services aimed at helping people resolve any conflicts between work and personal responsibilities. NSA is committed to its people and to creating the best possible workplace - to foster an environment that is not only leading edge, but also focused on people.

Most NSA/CSS employees, both civilian and military, are headquartered at Fort Meade, Maryland, centrally located between Baltimore and Washington, DC. Its workforce represents an unusual combination of specialties: analysts, engineers, physicists, mathematicians, linguists, computer scientists, researchers, as well as customer relations specialists, security officers, data flow experts, managers, administrative officers and clerical assistants.
