HII’s Enlighten Subsidiary Expands Office to Provide Enhanced Support for Big Data Operations and National Security Capabilities
August 05 2024 - 10:00AM
HII’s (NYSE: HII) Enlighten subsidiary marked a strategic expansion
of operations with the opening of a new office facility in
Columbia, Maryland, on July 31. The new office will serve as an
important hub for innovation, collaboration, and growth across the
company’s work with various branches of the U.S. military and
national security agencies, as well as Enlighten’s continued
leadership in providing solutions for big data analysis.
During the opening, Enlighten highlighted multiple high-value
contracts secured with the U.S. Department of Defense and other
federal agencies, establishing the company as a trusted leader and
partner in national security. These contracts include cutting-edge
solutions and projects focused on enhancing cyber defenses,
developing secure communication networks, and providing
comprehensive data analytics solutions.
The Enlighten team also demonstrated one of the company’s newest
offerings in big data analysis: IONIC.
IONIC is a next-generation data analysis solution that offers
full visibility across a wide range of data points (e.g.,
intelligence, infrastructure, operational readiness, and
cybersecurity posture). This cloud-based big data platform supports
normalization, enrichment, ingestion, and storage of big data from
a wide variety of sources. Core applications support query and
visualization to help analysts quickly pinpoint key information.
Specialized analytics, including those driven by Artificial
Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), study data and deliver
tailored results to narrow the field during an investigation. In
response to emerging requirements, these capabilities are developed
and delivered at mission speed directly to operational teams. In
this environment, previously isolated events can now be fused with
others to create a comprehensive situational awareness picture.
