Question: The Frank Byron Rowlett Award is given by a national-level intelligence agency under the authority of who?
Context: The Intelligence Authorization Act was implemented in order to codify covert, clandestine operations and defines requirements for reporting such operations to the Congress.  The American Constitution states, in Article 1, Section 9, that “a regular Statement and Account of the Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time.”  The act was passed along with the Intelligence Oversight Act of 1980, which allowed Congress and members of the agency to be included in important decisions and operations carried out by the Central Intelligence Agency.  The Intelligence Authorization Act was also an attempt to limit the authority and secrecy within the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) regarding foreign and domestic affairs, though its applications extends to each of the intelligence agencies, not just to the CIA. The Defense Clandestine Service (DCS) is an arm of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA), which conducts clandestine espionage activities around the world to answer national-level defense objectives for senior U.S. policymakers and military leaders.  Staffed by civilian and military personnel, DCS is part of DIA's Directorate of Operations and works in conjunction with the Central Intelligence Agency's Directorate of Operations and the U.S. military's Joint Special Operations Command.  DCS consists of about 500 clandestine operatives, which is roughly how many case officers the CIA maintained in the early 2000s prior to its expansion. The National Security Agency (NSA) is a national-level intelligence agency of the United States Department of Defense, under the authority of the Director of National Intelligence.  The NSA is responsible for global monitoring, collection, and processing of information and data for foreign intelligence and counterintelligence purposes, specializing in a discipline known as signals intelligence (SIGINT).  The NSA is also tasked with the protection of U.S. communications networks and information systems.  The NSA relies on a variety of measures to accomplish its mission, the majority of which are clandestine. Charbatia Air Base is located approximately 10 km north of Cuttack, Odisha in eastern India.  It is an aerial reconnaissance post of the intelligence agency's aviation unit, the Aviation Research Centre (ARC).  The Research and Analysis Wing, India's primary foreign intelligence agency, operates intelligence collection aircraft through the ARC.  The aircraft are fitted with electronic surveillance equipment and long range cameras capable of taking pictures of targets from high altitudes.  The base was built with the assistance of the Central Intelligence Agency in the early 1960s and was used for aerial surveillance and intelligence gathering of China's strategic forces.  The first aircraft was delivered in the mid 60's and was a World War II vintage C-46 which was outfitted with an oxygen distribution system for operator and flight personnel along with surveillance electronics and recording equipment at the Air America base in Tainan, Taiwan.  The installation was supervised by the design engineer, a Mr. Kent Williamson.  Mr. Williamson, along with other experienced personnel also deployed to Charbatia to train the first operator and maintenance personnel. The National Intelligence Authority (NIA) was the United States Government authority responsible for monitoring the Central Intelligence Group (CIG), the successor intelligence agency of the Office of Strategic Services established by President Harry S. Truman's Executive Letter of 22 January 1946 in the aftermath of World War Two.  The National Intelligence Authority and Central Intelligence Group were both replaced respectively by the National Security Council and the Central Intelligence Agency under the National Security Act of 1947 implemented on the 18 September 1947. The Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) is a military espionage organization of the United States and one of the country's national-level intelligence agencies under the jurisdiction of the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD).  Less known than its non-DoD equivalent or its cryptologic counterpart, the DIA and its personnel have at times been portrayed in works of American popular culture.  As with other U.S. foreign intelligence organizations, the agency's role has occasionally been confused with those of law enforcement agencies. The Bangladesh intelligence community is a group of several intelligence agencies charged with carrying out intelligence gathering activities considered necessary for the conduct of foreign relations and national security of Bangladesh including other functions vital for the national security of Bangladesh.  Member organizations of the Bangladesh intelligence community include military intelligence of Bangladesh Army, Navy, Air Force, National Police and civilian intelligence and analysis offices within executive ministries.  The I.C. is headed by a Director heading each Intelligence agency, who reports to the Prime Minister of the Bangladesh.The organisation and structure of the modern Bangladesh intelligence community has developed its structures from agencies that continued to function after Independence from Pakistan.  Bangladesh intelligence agencies today are the National Security Intelligence, the Special Branch, Army Intelligence, Air Force Intelligence, Naval Intelligence and the Directorate General of Forces Intelligence (DGFI).  During the 1971 Bangladesh Independence War, the Bangladesh Forces in the 11 BDF Sectors also developed an intelligence network within its organisation of guerrilla combat teams that provided the sectors with essential local intelligence.  However, the intelligence agency personnel have been and still continues to be recruited and trained from within the particular agency.  Among their varied responsibilities, the members of the Community collect and produce foreign and domestic intelligence, contribute to military planning, and perform espionage. The Frank Byron Rowlett Award (formerly the Information Systems Security National Award) is an award given by the National Security Agency to recognize outstanding organizational and individual excellence in the field of information systems security.  Today these annual awards, named in honor of cryptologic pioneer Frank Rowlett, recognize significant contributions to the information assurance discipline. The Intelligence Star is an award given by the Central Intelligence Agency to its officers for "voluntary acts of courage performed under hazardous conditions or for outstanding achievements or services rendered with distinction under conditions of grave risk".  The award citation is from the Director of the Central Intelligence Agency and specifically cites actions of "extraordinary heroism".  It is the third-highest award given by the Central Intelligence Agency, behind the Distinguished Intelligence Cross and Distinguished Intelligence Medal, and is analogous to the Silver Star, the US military award for extraordinary heroism in combat.  Only a few dozen people have received this award (most posthumously), making it one of the rarest valor awards awarded by the US government. Frank Byron Rowlett (May 2, 1908 – June 29, 1998) was an American cryptologist.
