NSA to Build Cyber Security Center in Utah

Posted by Kara Reeder Oct 27, 2009 9:54:25 AM

The National Security Agency is planning a $1.5 billion cyber security data center at the Utah National Guard's Camp Williams near Salt Lake City. The facility will serve as the hub of the highly-classified Comprehensive National Cybersecurity Initiative, reports Computerworld.

 

The purpose of the 1 million-square-foot center has been vague. An NSA spokeswoman would say only that it will provide "critical support to national cyber security priorities."

 

Construction of the facility will provide 5,000 to 10,000 jobs, with 100 to 200 people being employed when it's fully operational.
