The Next Wave (TNW) is a journal discussing the research and technological innovation taking place at the NSA. TNW began in 1992 as an internal employee newsletter known as Tech Trend Notes, but as a result of an increase in readership and external requests for the publication, it was released to the public in 2004 with a new name: The Next Wave.
By sharing our research in TNW, we aim to strengthen our existing relationships with federal labs, academia, industry, and the public, as well as generate new partnerships.
