International Seam Authority, 2079 — the link between the first classified programme and everything after.
In full
A public working organisation with a classified subset retained internally, and roughly eighty researchers. It sits in the middle of a chain the whole franchise runs on: the first classified initiative, then ISA, then the early training programme, then the institute, then the deep-frontier service. It is the body that owned the training programme and eventually became the service.
