Trusted Computer Solutions Marks
10-Year Anniversary with Record 2004 Growth
Northern Virginia Company Celebrates Decade of
Leadership and Innovation in Multi-Level Security
HERNDON, Va., Jan. 11, 2005 — Trusted Computer Solutions, Inc. (TCS), a leading supplier of information sharing technologies to the Department of Defense, the intelligence community and commercial industry, celebrates 10 years of steady success with record growth in 2004.
TCS founders addressed the technology challenges of information sharing long before they gained widespread public attention. Recent media coverage of the 9/11 Commission Report and the Intelligence Reform Bill brings the issue of sharing of classified information from a niche concern of the intelligence community to a top priority of Congress, the Administration and the Department of Defense as we wage the War on Terror.
"Today TCS is a leader in the field of secure information sharing, with a track record of profitability and steady growth," said Ed Hammersla, chief operating officer, "We attribute this success largely to the tremendous foresight and talent of our founders, the dedication of a superior management team and a collection of some of the best engineers in the world."
TCS was formed with a vision of building commercial software application products that would allow secure information sharing between government agencies as well as commercial institutions. Founded in the same year the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act (FASA) passed — a law requiring government to buy commercial rather than government developed products — TCS products provide motivation for its continued enforcement.
Today, TCS continues to strive to achieve its original objectives to develop applications that are easy to install and administer, while maintaining the highest standards of quality — passing rigorous testing requirements of the National Security Agency and others to become accredited. TCS solutions are at work worldwide securing a wide variety of computer applications in government and commercial markets.
Meanwhile, TCS has also become one of the largest repositories of trusted engineering expertise in the world. In 2004, the company announced it is building Trusted Linux™, the world’s first commercially available multilevel-secure (MLS) Linux operating system, which will serve as the next foundation for its SecureOffice® suite of secure applications.
