Telos Corporation, a provider of advanced technology solutions that protect vital assets of enterprises, has reportedly signed a new contract with Air Force Special Operations Command, America’s specialized Air power, to design and deliver a secure wireless communications package – SWAMP-LITE.

 
According to one Telos official, the Secure Wireless Access Modular Package will provide deployed classified and unclassified communication capability suitable for a small user count. It will allow special operators to access secure wireless network.
 
“SWAMP-LITE is based on an Aruba Networks (News - Alert) secure mesh topology that will bridge classified and un-classified clients back to the core AFSOC element,” said Rob Smith, director of technology and architecture for Telos Secure Networks.
 
“The deployment kit can integrate into the existing network package being fielded by AFSOC, or operate as an autonomous network providing a high degree of flexibility for mission deployments,” added Smith.
 
For nearly 30 years, Telos Corporation has been offering innovative IT solutions and services to the federal government. The company’s solutions include; Xacta (News - Alert) IA Manager for enterprise IT security management, enterprise security consulting services, secure networks, secure enterprise messaging, and secure identity management solutions.
