A US research lab with nearly $2 billion in government funding is hacking smart devices at the border and studying 'human odor signatures' to interrogate criminal suspects

A secretive research lab called Mitre Corporation has existed in the US since the late 1950s and is receiving nearly $2 billion a year in funding, per a Forbes report published Monday.

Per the report, Mitre's primary objective has been to protect national security from its inception, but its contribution to advanced surveillance technology has drawn the attention of privacy advocates.A non-profit contractor was spun out of MIT in 1958 to oversee enemy aircraft detection systems during the Cold War.

One former Mitre employee told the outlet that the lab has already been lending its insight to the Customs and Border Protection to aid in their search of electronics at the border. The tool would allow agents to hack into smartwatches, fitness teachers, and other connected devices merely by being in range.

Per Forbes, Mitre has also played a hand in helping the FBI with facial recognition in their operations, aiding the agency in fleshing out "the world's largest and most efficient electronic repository of biometric and criminal history information." Former FBI science lead Chris Piehota told Forbes that all local and federal law enforcement agencies are able to access the database to find the identity and background of a criminal.
