Several branches of the U.S. military purchased an internet monitoring tool that purportedly covers 90% of global internet traffic, according to contracting data reviewed by Vice. The monitoring tool, Augury, made by cybersecurity company Team Cymru, is “powered by data purchases from the private sector.” Augury combines large amounts of data that is packaged for government and corporate customers that have purchased the service. The monitoring data is sourced from 550 global collection points and “is updated with at least 100 billion new records each day."
