National Security Agency

The NSA (National Security Agency) is a cryptologic intelligence agency of the United States of America, which directs a variety of collection and analysis of foreign signal intelligence and communcations. It is also responsible for the security of government communications.

The agency is featured in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2. In the mission Endgame, players undertake the role of Cpt. John "Soap" MacTavish, who chases General [[Shepherd out of Site Hotel Bravo. It is an unplayable faction in the game, only mentioned once in the briefing, seen analysing Captain Price's message to kill Sheperd.

Trivia

 * The fact that the NSA had to fine tune the signal to interpret Price's speech might indicate the NSA was listening in on Soap and Price's radio chatter.
 * The agency was also featured in Dan Brown's novel Digital Fortress.
