Under the contract, CSC will provide program management and system integration services to the Office of Cyber Security and Communications. It will design and build an expanded watch floor that will integrate national security capabilities from the US Computer Emergency Response Team (US CERT) and the National Coordinating Center of the National Communications System.
CSC’s team for the contract includes Imtech Corp, Activu Corp, TWD & Associates, and Woodtronics, a division of Cerain Corp. The deal was awarded under the Enterprise Acquisition Gateway for Leading Edge Solutions (EAGLE) contract vehicle, originally awarded to CSC in July 2006.
Aaron Fuller, president at CSC's North American Public Sector Enforcement, Security and Intelligence Group, said: "CSC recognizes cyber warfare as one of the biggest, most immediate and longest term threats to the United States and the global economy. Through innovative technology solutions, we will support the Office of Cyber Security and Communications in their mission to enhance the security, resiliency and reliability of our nation's cyber and communications infrastructure."
In March, CSC won a two-year $56m contract extension from the DHS's National Communications System to continue to provide support for the Government Emergency Telecommunications Service and Wireless Priority Service programs.
