Wyle's Science, Technology and Engineering Group has more than 50 security specialists working to protect sensitive systems from attack on approximately 40 Federal contracts. Nearly all of these security specialists are certified by The SANS Institute, and more than 20 are Certified Information Systems Security Professionals (CISSP). One leading IT security specialist holds five Global Information Assurance Certifications (GIAC) and was the Project Leader for the Center for Internet Security’s (CIS) Apache Benchmark Project for three years. Federal agencies are embracing the CIS benchmarks to address many of the cyber security requirements defined by the Federal Information Security Management Act (FISMA) and other guidelines.
Many agencies have turned to Wyle to help them protect their mission-critical data. At the Department of Energy (DOE), Wyle staff protect 250 servers with continuity of operations plans, disaster recovery procedures, and a “hot site” backup environment. At the Office of Civilian Radioactive Waste Management (OCRWM), staff created and successfully implemented a Cyber Security Program Plan that addressed DOE’s new, more stringent cyber security requirements. As a result, OCRWM was the first DOE group to have a security plan approved.
Wyle also supports operations and security for all 118 Job Corps Centers for the Department of Labor, having developed the Job Corps Data Center’s (JCDC) cyber security policy and assisted with the development of the National Office’s security incident response policy.
