Section 702 is a key provision of the FISA Amendments Act of 2008 that permits the government to conduct targeted surveillance of foreign persons located outside the United States, with the compelled assistance of electronic communication service providers, to acquire foreign intelligence information. the government uses the information collected under section 702 to protect the United States and its allies from hostile foreign adversaries, including terrorists, proliferators, and spies, and to inform cybersecurity efforts. The Section 702 program is extremely complex, involving multiple agencies, collecting multiple types of information, for multiple purposes. Each agency that receives communications under Section 702 has its own minimization procedures, approved by the FISA court.
