Intelligence and National Security Experience

Information Assurance Technology Analysis Center. Booz Allen's national resource for collecting, analyzing, generating, and disseminating scientific and technical information on emerging technologies is critical for information operations and information assurance.

• Public Key Infrastructure. We support the PKI planning and implementation strategy for U.S. security agencies, civil agencies, and the Department of Defense (DoD).
• Knowledge Management/Decision Support Tool. For the U.S. Joint Requirements Oversight Council, we are developing a tool that merges document management capability with architectural analysis/visualization.
• Information Risk Analysis. We regularly perform risk analysis, penetration testing, contingency planning, networking, and secure data transfer for U.S. government civilian agencies. We are one of seven companies certified by the NSA to perform vulnerability assessments of commercial and government entities under the INFOSECAssessment Training and Rating Program (IATRP).
• Intelligence Data Applications. We analyze intelligence collection capabilities, intelligence dissemination systems, and intelligence products to seek ways to improve support to both military and national intelligence "consumers." These improvements have included concepts for improved collection capabilities, tailored intelligence-collection strategies, new intelligence-analysis tools, and enhanced support to the military operations of the U.S. and its allies.
• Border Control. We built and deployed worldwide the Personal IdentificationSecure Comparison and Evaluation System (PISCES), which allows countries to collect, compare, and analyze data to secure their borders or other controlled areas. The system provides border-control officials and other interested groups with a tracking system and set of analytical tools to capture and evaluate information of interest, making PISCES a critical tool in the war on terrorism.
• Certification and Accreditation. We provided planning and documentation support, and conducted numerous C&A activities in support of DoD and security agencies, and we are one of six U.S. companies to be certified as an approved test and evaluation facility to develop IT security evaluation criteria that are broadly useful within the international community. (NAIP and TTAP Certification)
• Mission Assurance. We assisted with the development of the only approved mission implementation plan for the NSA.
• Privatization. We support the NSA's activities in analysis and evaluation for the feasibility of acquiring IT services by evaluating various sourcing options and strategies.
• Distance Learning. We developed CLEON, a distance education effort developed and managed by Booz Allen, which is currently the NRO's primary distance education tool. We develop, implement, and maintain training courses over existing wide-area networks to include SIPRNET, GWAN, and JWICS.
• Customer Advocacy. We have won six national Telly Awards for our innovative multimedia/video products used by our customers to communicate their vision and mission.
• Message Handling Systems. We developed the primary message handling systems for the NRO.
• Voting Over the Internet (VOI). We developed the prototype for the first system to use the Internet to cast binding votes in a U.S. general election.
