نبذة

استمرت المشروع من 1 فبراير 1943 حتى 1 أكتوبر 1980 وكان الغرض منه فك تشفير الرسائل التي تنقلها وكالات الاستخبارات في الاتحاد السوفيتي[3].

البدايات

بدأ عندما كان الاتحاد السوفياتي حليف للولايات المتحدة أثناء الحرب العالمية الثانية واستمر البرنامج خلال الحرب الباردة عندما كان عدوا[4].

خلال مدة 37 عام من مشروع فينونا تم الحصول على حوالي 3000 رسالة سوفيتية وشملت تجسس كامبريدج في المملكة المتحدة والتجسس السوفيتي لمشروع مانهاتن في الولايات المتحدة[5].

ظل مشروع فينونا سراً لأكثر من 15 عام بعد انتهائه ولم يتم رفع السرية عن بعض الرسائل السوفيتية المشفرة من قبل الولايات المتحدة ونشرت في عام 1995[6].

"Thanks to successful espionage, the Russians tested their first atom bomb in August 1949, just four years after the first American test. As will be discussed, we had learned of the Los Alamos spies in December 1946—December 20, to be precise. The US Army Security Agency, in the person of Meredith Knox Gardner, a genius in his own right, had broken one of what it termed the Venona messages—the transmissions that Soviet agents in the United States sent to and received from Moscow."

"Currie, known as PAZh (Page) and White, whose cover names were YuRIST (Jurist) and changed later to LAJER (Lawyer), had been Soviet agents since the 1930s. They had been identified as Soviet agents in Venona translations and by other agents turned witnesses or informants for the FBI and Justice Department. From the Venona translations, both were known to pass intelligence to their handlers, notably the Silvermaster network."
