Demand for Cyber Security continues PDF Print E-mail
February 5, 2009 - 1FORCE announced continued demand and growth in their Cyber Security services which is a high priority for the Obama administration. Recent security reports continue to show vulnerabilities within the Federal infrastructure causing great risk to National Security. The $10 billion or more being spent on cyber security in the next five years by President Obama will provide great opportunity for organizations that have the experience and competencies to assess and provide solutions. Over the last few years incidents have occurred across several areas of the Federal infrastructure putting CIOs on alert and making Cyber Security thier top priority. In June 2007, Chinese military hacked into a Pentagon computer network creating alarm by Pentagon officials and although cyber-security continues to get attention, most individuals don't understand the risk and impact that a breach to our infrastructure could have. "Our challenge lies not just in  monitoring our networks and implementing the right technology to prevent the attacks, we need to be focused on gathering intelligence on all the data points and connecting the dots to be proactive against those individuals and organizations that are set on bringing down our infrastructure." said Fred Clark, a senior cyber-intel analyst with 1FORCE.
