mission with cyber threat intelligence analysts, incident response,
and global mission support
FireEye, Inc. (NASDAQ: FEYE), the intelligence-led security
company, today announced that it has been named a key partner in
the United States Army Cyber Command (ARCYBER) efforts to keep pace
with today’s adversaries and evolving cyber threats.
As part of a new $905 million, five-year award,
Perspecta Inc. (NYSE: PRSP) has subcontracted with FireEye to
enhance cyber operations and global mission support for ARCYBER.
Under the Cyberspace Operations Support task order, FireEye will
provide professional services to assist with cyber threat
intelligence operations, defensive cyber operations (DCO),
cyberspace incident response, and cyberspace exercise support and
training.
ARCYBER is the Army headquarters beneath United States Cyber
Command (USCYBERCOM). ARCYBER is responsible for the operation and
defense of Army networks, as well as delivering cyberspace effects
against adversaries to defend the nation.
FireEye Brings Cybersecurity Expertise to Operational
Command
“The strength of U.S. national security depends in part on
effective cyber warfare and staying ahead of evolving cyber
threats. Being selected for this operation serves as further
testament to the level of intelligence and quality of our experts
around the world,” said Ron Bushar, CTO and Vice President of
Government Solutions at FireEye. “FireEye is uniquely positioned to
see ARCYBER through this cyber defense transition due to our
extensive actionable intelligence generation capabilities. We are
honored to be chosen to work alongside Perspecta on this ARCYBER
program in pursuit of its mission to keep our nation, and those who
protect us, safe.”
In support of its global mission to strategically elevate the
use of cyberspace capabilities within military operations, FireEye
will provide ARCYBER with best-in-class incident and network
response, including intelligence methodology and best
