I notice in this article that one of their programs is
"EtherPeek". Assuming this is the same as the well known ethernet sniffer,
you don't need to file for FOIA to learn about it.

Additionally, I don't believe the source is available, and I would doubt
the FBI would have the source for it. But, assuming that a) this is the
same product that the FBI is using, and b) they were given the source
under the agreement that it not be disclosed, could the FOIA force the
disclosure of this code?
