Osama Bin Laden: A Central Figure in National Security

The National Security Agency (NSA) is launching a new podcast titled No Such Podcast, dedicated to sharing insights about significant past missions. The initial episodes will focus on critical areas like foreign signals intelligence and cybersecurity.

Episode Highlights: Targeting Osama Bin Laden

The pilot episode delves deep into the agency’s efforts surrounding Osama Bin Laden, a pivotal figure behind the September 11, 2001 attacks. It features a declassified account of NSA’s signals intelligence (SIGINT) that played a crucial role in the U.S. government's mission to apprehend Bin Laden.

  • Interviews with cybersecurity experts
  • Insight into advanced research and artificial intelligence

This new effort resembles previous initiatives by federal agencies to narrate their stories through media. Noteworthy is the movie Killers of the Flower Moon, which featured an FBI radio show, indicating a historical precedent for government storytelling.

As we move into mid-October, listeners can anticipate six more episodes of No Such Podcast. It will be available on popular platforms, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube. According to NSA’s chief of strategic communications, Sara Siegle, this initiative aims to share the work of dedicated public servants and provide insights into the agency's operational expertise.
