Highlights

In June 1976, the Office of Telecommunications Policy awarded a firm-fixed-price sole-source negotiated contract to the Mitre Corporation to study the interception vulnerabilities of unprotected domestic commercial telecommunications systems, especially microwave systems. The study yielded a two-volume report and a separate how-to publication entitled "Elected Examples of Possible Approaches to Electronic Communications Interception Operations."
