traffic to detect411' unreported violat10ns of cryptographic procedures, to derive statistics necessary 

for the evaluation of suspected cryptographic compromises, and to provide a basis for the evaluation 

of the effectiveness of the cryptonet structure 

3 Investigates reports of v10lations of communication procedures, practices dangerous to 

security, and suspected compromise to determine the effects of these upon the curren1 state of 

communication security and to propose remedial action after evaluation (When evaluation requires 

the application of cryptoanalytic techniques, the fmal evaluation or a review of the evaluation will be 

made by the Research Analysis Branch )
