NSA SIGINT Development Conference

This classified conference will focus on the preeminent intelligence issues facing those who are tasked with Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) as part of their mission. Over 1500 participants from the US intelligence community and throughout the world will attend this conference.

The exposition will be unclassified and will consist of a two-day event as an adjunct to the SIGINT Conference. The conference sessions will be conducted in a classified area (the Friedman Auditorium) in close proximity to the exhibit area (located in the OPS1 Cafeteria Party Room). Visiting the exhibits will be incorporated into the daily agenda for the conference. As a result, vendors can expect to see the majority of the 1500 attendees who will be participating in the conference. In addition, the expo will be open to all NSA personnel on both days ensuring a vast group of attendees.

What is SIGINT?
Signals Intelligence is technical and intelligence information derived from the exploitation of foreign electronic emissions which is comprised either individually or in combination of communications intelligence (COMINT), electronic intelligence (ELINT), and foreign instrumentation signals intelligence (FISINT).
