ISYS Technologies: Safeguarding the Nation's Vital Assets

As a part of counterterrorism, post-9/11 attack, the U.S. government has been investing heavily on advanced security programs, new systems, utilizing IT and data among the various federal, state, and local agencies to aid intelligence and surveillance against terrorist operations. The initiatives to tighten the security require private bodies with technological capabilities to join hands with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to bring in their expertise and integrate technology in various threat countering efforts. In such a scenario, ISYS Technologies stepped in to support DHS in guarding the nation’s vital assets, including information management infrastructure, transportation systems, food and water supplies, and law enforcement. As an IT company, ISYS is focused on providing security services to homeland security customers—such as the United States Coast Guard, Transportation Security Administration, Customs and Border Protection Agency, Federal Aviation Administration, and state and local governments.

“Our support to DHS provides the technology that guards our borders, integrates threat information, protects critical infrastructures, and provides maritime surveillance,” cites Teresa Porter, CEO, ISYS Technologies. The company also ensures the security of the electronic systems that are susceptible to viruses, hacking, and identity and information theft. Comprehensively, ISYS offers a depth of expertise and technological capabilities to help protect the nation, whether it’s in the form of providing satellite imagery support to track threats or developing systems to analyze complex security data for rapid first response.

ISYS handles some of the nation’s most sensitive information, thus views information security as more than just a software feature. The company ensures that its customers have a secure architecture, where security processes and methodologies are not just bolted on, but built in it. The protection and defense of information management infrastructure of the U.S. from continuous malicious attacks requires genuine information assurance.

With the evolution of net-centric and cyber warfare, ISYS parallely spans its capabilities across the broad spectrum of communications and the full array of information assurance operations, providing superior information assurance and security capabilities to its customers. ISYS’ IT specialists ensure smooth functioning of computer systems, and network free of glitches, and interruptions for an effective flow of information, cutting down the risk of attacks during downtime.

At the same time, the growing sophistication of the battlefields demand agility and precision at every turn as warfighters face threats on ground, in air, at sea, and in cyberspace. This requires latest high technology satellite-guided weapons for soldiers to stand tough in the war fields, and also to enable the government to deploy warfighters anywhere in the world at a moment’s notice and safely bring them home again. As the Department of Defense continues to rely on contractors to support its current and future operations, ISYS supports warfighters in the areas of command and control operations, logistics, and information security. Supporting the warfighters on the battlefield, ISYS significantly contributes to the peacekeeping missions at home and abroad.

Fostering immense flexibility, strength, and diversity, ISYS brings transformational technology, ideas, and processes to homeland security. “We are a horizontally integrated company that focuses on strategies, integrates solutions, directs resources, streamlines processes, and infuses technology to meet the needs of this dynamic environment,” says Teresa. ISYS is recognized for its command and control capability to provide support with the most accurate and timely information for the President, the Secretary of Defense, other national leadership, and combatant commanders.
