"The Secret Service traditionally has given pithy, private names to those whose lives they protect.
The monikers are a throwback to a time when electronic communications were not encrypted, and they no longer serve a 
security function.

President-elect Barack Obama: Renegade

Michelle Obama: Renaissance

Malia Obama: Radiance

Sasha Obama: Rosebud"

etc.
