New post on some of the interesting bits in CSE's 2024-25 annual report, which was released last month.
Top news: The number of Canadian SIGINT clients grew by 41% last year. More work with law enforcement may be part of the reason.
https…
CSE also incidentally collects (and suppresses) info about FVEY nationals and will provide that info to that country if requested. US requests for info about US nationals could become more problematic given Trump administration plans. 18/18
Many of those reports are shared with Canada, and thus it is likely many of the CII requests Canadian clients make to CSE relate to FVEY reports. When such a request is approved, CSE gets the CII from the partner and passes it on to the cl…
Another issue where more info would be useful concerns the use of CII in FVEY partners’ reports. The partners (mostly) do not target each other’s nationals, but incidental collection does occur and CII in those reports is also suppressed. …
CSE has rejected those requests on the grounds that the information “remains classified and cannot be published.” This is true, but only because CSE, which is the classification authority for this information, has chosen not to declassify …
NSIRA has asked CSE to release more information to the public about CSE’s use of CII, including how often suppressed CII appears in its reports and how often the broader category of “information relating to a Canadian or a person in Canada…
It is likely that a large percentage of the FVEY requests are from NSA. When Trump takes office, Canada will have to consider US requests for CII -- and of course many other types of routinely shared SIGINT information -- very carefully. 1…
About 13% of the 2023 requests came from FVEY partners rather than Canadian clients. It is likely that the disclosure rate for these requests was somewhat lower, but CSE has not released a number for that since 2013-14, when it was about 5…
This is a big drop from the approval rates of the past, suggesting that NSIRA’s recommendations have had a good effect at CSE. But clients still seem to be making a lot of inappropriate or insufficiently documented requests. 11/
That said, it would appear that about 26-27% of the 2023 CII requests were either denied by CSE or cancelled by the client (in most of those cases probably because CSE had questioned the rationale for the request). 10/
The recent CSE and NSIRA annual reports also provided some information about CSE’s responses to CII requests in 2023. Unfortunately, those numbers are also contradictory. I’ve submitted follow-up questions to the agency and hope to hear ba…
