NSA, Harris Seal Secure Wireless Deal

Doug Beizer writes on GCN.com:

The National Security Agency has awarded a contract to Harris Corp. to build wireless networks with top-secret security for federal agencies and other approved customers.

The five-year, $41.6 million contract was awarded to Harris for its new SecNet 54 Secure Wireless Local Area Network product. SecNet 54 can be used in secure communications applications up to Top Secret/SCI Level Data. It can operate with an Inline Network Encryptor using a pre-placed symmetric key.

The new product is designed for Defense Department, federal and international customers, and is an enabling technology for several programs such as the Army’s Warfighter Information Network-Tactical, Command Post Platform and Joint Network Node programs.
