I Know When I Was Here Prosecuting

Prior To The Passage Of The Patriot Act, It Was Very Difficult - Often Impossible - For Us To Share Information With The Central Intelligence Agency, With Nsa, With The Other Intelligence Agencies, And Likewise, For Them To Share Information With Us.

In The Future, The Cyber Threat Will Equal Or Even Eclipse The Terrorist Threat.

What We Bring To The Table Is Not Only Our 56 Field Offices In The United States And Our Number Of Resident Agencies, But Also We Have 45 Legal Attaches Overseas.

And So Every One Of Us In The Fbi, I Don't Care If It's A File Clerk Someplace Or An Agent There Or A Computer Specialist, Understands That Our Main Mission Is To Protect The Public From Another September 11, Another Terrorist Attack.

People Talk About The Patriot Act That Was Passed Immediately In The Wake Of September 11. What The Patriot Act Did Was Break Down The Walls Between The Various Agencies.
