VEGA focuses on information superiority and cyber security challenges at Le Bourget 2011

16 June 2011 – VEGA Consulting Services Ltd (VEGA), a Finmeccanica company, will be profiling its expertise in the areas of information superiority and cyber security, at Le Bourget 2011.

As part of Finmeccanica’s significant presence, VEGA will be contributing to the group’s overall capability on display. In particular, the company will be demonstrating solutions that are currently supporting information superiority in theatres of operation, promote secure intelligence sharing, and address international cyber security and information defence challenges.

This includes the Integrated Cyber Shield programme on which VEGA is playing a key role as part of its parent company, SELEX Sistemi Integrati’s overall offer. VEGA has a specific focus in this area, creating a Security Operations Centre (SOC) aimed at meeting the UK sovereign security and information defence challenges at all levels of classification.

VEGA will also be highlighting its expertise in support of defence information superiority through the use of Application Characterisation Services (ACS) and theatre network service management. Both are already playing a significant role in actively enabling coalition forces to understand their information networks and perform more efficiently in the theatres of operation.

VEGA Managing Director, Paul MacGregor, said: “The 21st century's reliance on information systems, means the management and defence of shared information is of vital importance. Information Superiority is now core to the success of any military programme or commercial enterprise. Le Bourget provides us with an opportunity to share with customers innovative ways to achieve advantage quickly and cost effectively using our proven technologies and delivery methods.”
