NSA has Higher Profile, New Problems

Siobhan Gorman writes in The Baltimore Sun:

For its first 50 years, the National Security Agency was known to few beyond the insular world of intelligence. The agency's analysts, mathematicians and engineers rarely spoke of their work, even to their families, and were horrified when "NSA" was added to exit signs on the Baltimore-Washington Parkway.

Sept. 11 changed all that. Since then, the NSA has been thrust to center stage, a blessing and a curse for the formerly low-profile agency.
