Narus Inc. was a software company and vendor of big data analytics for cybersecurity. In 1997, Ori Cohen, Vice President of Business and Technology Development for VDONet, founded Narus with Stas Khirman in Israel. Presently, they are employed with Deutsche Telekom AG and are not members of Narus' executive team. In 2010, Narus became a subsidiary of Boeing, located in Sunnyvale, California. In 2015, Narus was sold to Symantec. Here are some of the key events in Narus's history: 1997: Narus is founded. 2001: Narus's products are used to track the September 11th terrorist attacks. 2004: Narus's products are used to track the spread of the Stuxnet worm. 2014: Narus is acquired by Boeing. 2015: Boeing's Phantom Works Intelligence & Analytics business is formed. Narus was a pioneer in the field of big data analytics for cybersecurity. The company's products helped to protect organizations from a variety of cyber threats. Narus's products are no longer available, but Boeing's Phantom Works Intelligence & Analytics business continues to offer cybersecurity solutions. In 2004, Narus employed former Deputy Director of the National Security Agency, William Crowell as a director. From the Press Release announcing this: Crowell is an independent security consultant and holds several board positions with a variety of technology and technology-based security companies. Since 11 September 2001, Crowell served on the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) Task Force on Terrorism and Deterrence, the National Research Council Committee on Science and Technology for Countering Terrorism, and the Markle Foundation Task Force on National Security in the Information Age. Narus software primarily captures various computer network traffic in real-time and analyzes results. Before 9/11 Narus built carrier-grade tools to analyze IP network traffic for billing purposes, to prevent what Narus called "revenue leakage". Post-9/11 Narus added more "semantic monitoring abilities" for surveillance.

Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act

The Communications Assistance for Law Enforcement Act (CALEA), also known as the "Digital Telephony Act," is a United States wiretapping law passed in 1994, during the presidency of Bill Clinton (Pub. L. No. 103-414, 108 Stat. 4279, codified at 47 USC 1001-1010). CALEA's purpose is to enhance the ability of law enforcement agencies to conduct lawful interception of communication by requiring that telecommunications carriers and manufacturers of telecommunications equipment modify and design their equipment, facilities, and services to ensure that they have built-in capabilities for targeted surveillance, allowing federal agencies to selectively wiretap any telephone traffic; it has since been extended to cover broadband Internet and VoIP traffic.
