"In addition to information technology solutions and mission applications, we provide our defense customers with the robust cyber security solutions necessary for success in their unique environment," said John Mengucci, President of Lockheed Martin Information Systems and Global Services-Defense. "Our Mission Maker solutions build in the intelligence to effectively fight through cyber attacks. It's a combination of the right people and training, robust processes, key technologies, mission knowledge and secure system implementations."

The company has a proven capability in protecting data between security domains, securing essential messages, authenticating for access, managing key assets and advancing state-of-the-art military communications.
