We are New Zealand’s lead organisation for Signals Intelligence (SIGINT), meaning we specialise in intelligence derived from electronic communications.
We also provide cyber-security and cyber-resilience for organisations of national significance.
We have two primary objectives - to deliver Impenetrable Infrastructure and Indispensable Intelligence.
Impenetrable Infrastructure means we work to ensure New Zealand’s most important information infrastructures are impenetrable to technology borne compromise. The National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) leads our work in this area.
Indispensable Intelligence means our intelligence consistently generates unique policy and operational impacts for New Zealand.
