DULLES, Va., March 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Raytheon
Company's (NYSE: RTN) Trusted Thin Client® (TTC) product was
selected as the gold winner in the category "Security Products and
Solutions for Government" at the 2014 Info Security Products Guide
Global Excellence Awards. The security industry celebrated the 10th
annual awards in San Francisco,
Calif. during the RSA Conference USA 2014 by honoring excellence in every facet
of the cyber security industry including products, people behind
the successes, and best companies.
With more than 95,000 applications worldwide, Raytheon Trusted
Thin Client was recognized as an innovative, commercial
off-the-shelf product. Hosted on the back end of a customer's
network system, TTC uses virtualization technologies to provide
users access to multiple networks of varying classifications via
one wire to the desktop rather than multiple desktop machines
accessing each network. This approach eliminates unnecessary
hardware, enhances user productivity and simplifies IT
administration across the enterprise.
"Clearly the problem of sharing classified information across
multiple secure domains at various classification levels is a
primary concern for both the intelligence and defense communities,"
said Ed Hammersla, managing
director, Raytheon Cyber Products at Raytheon Intelligence,
Information and Services. "Critical infrastructure and commercial
companies with highly sensitive data also see the value in
efficiently sharing secure information. Our technology is being
recognized by the Info Security Products Guide for its ability to
help protect and share mission-critical information while bringing
cost savings to our customer."
More than 50 judges across a broad spectrum of industry voices
from around the world participated in the awards process, and their
average scores determined the 2014 Global Excellence Awards Winners
announced during a dinner presentation February 24, 2014. For a complete listing of
