The transfers from Summit to Base and Base to NCSA go over private networks that are not part of the public Internet. We have our own dedicated fibers running from the mountain to the base \citedsp{LSE-78},
intercepting transfers would require physical access to the fibers - tapping those would probably disrupt our network at least temporarily.
For an added security we could also monitor fiber attenuation.
The network is also actively monitored withe Bro\footnote{\url{https://www.corelight.com/about-bro/how-bro-works/}} system. Hence we would at least known something was up.
The network was actively monitored withe Bro\footnote{\url{https://www.corelight.com/about-bro/how-bro-works/}} system which is currently inactive we expect this to come back online under NOIRlab. Hence we would at least known something was up.
Though technically feasible by perhaps bribing or coercing staff somewhere this seems unlikely - a physical tap should also be noticed during fiber inspections. The image as transferred over this line is also in an obscure format (though could be put together with some effort).
