Lockheed Martin Corp. (NYSE: LMT) has won a potential $454 million task order to provide digital forensics and analysis to the Defense Department for combating cyber crime.
The company said it received the task order from the General Services Administration’s Federal Systems Integration and Management Center, through the Alliant contract vehicle.
Technical, functional and managerial support will assist the Cyber Crime Center in criminal investigations, counterintelligence, counterterrorism and protecting the industrial base, said Gerry Fasano, president of defense within the information systems and global solutions group.
Cyber threats are growing in volume and complexity, said Dr. Rohan Amin, DC3 program director for Lockheed.
DC3 will also receive support in multimedia lab services, research, development, test, evaluation and cyber analytics.
Work will primarily occur at DC3 headquarters in Linthicum, Md.
Earlier this week, the company won a $254.7 million contract to provide maintenance and operational support services for the Defense Department’s civilian human resources system.
