For nearly every lock, ANT seems to have a key in its toolbox. And no matter what walls companies erect, the NSA’s specialists seem already to have gotten past them. This is the impression gained from flipping through the 50-page document.

The catalog even lists the prices for these electronic break-in tools, with costs ranging from free to $250,000.”
