MCLEAN, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
Today, the tools and technology needed to carry out a large-scale
cyber-attack are getting cheaper and easier to use. To defend the
ever-changing and complex threat environment, the nation's cyber
defenders must have actionable intelligence as well as a keen sense of
tactics and techniques to protect our organizations and the personal
information of millions of people. To continue the support of this
effort, the General
Services Administration (GSA)/Federal
System Integration and Management Center (FEDSIM) awarded Booz Allen
Hamilton (NYSE:BAH) a five-year, $165M IDIQ contract to provide Plans
and Policy, Training and Command Administrative and Staff support
services to USCYBERCOM
- a subordinate of the Department
of Defense's Strategic Command.
"Booz Allen brings a high quality, cross-disciplinary and proactive
approach to cyber defense that helps our nation move faster, and more
deliberately in the defense of increased threats," said James
Allen, Executive Vice President and Booz Allen's Cyber Account
leader.
