WASHINGTON -- The Pentagon today awarded Plano, Texas-based Electronic
Data Systems Corp. a contract to develop and install a survivable IT
and communications infrastructure capable of withstanding a future
terrorist attack on a scale similar to or greater than the Sept. 11,
2001, attacks.
The two-year, $258 million deal falls under the auspices of the U.S.
Department of Defense's Command Communications Survivability Program
(CSSP). The CSSP upgrade is designed to ensure the survivability,
redundancy, recoverability and security of Defense Department IT
infrastructure. It covers networks, data storage, and voice and
messaging systems at the Pentagon and various other U.S. military
facilities.
