FireEye, Inc. (NASDAQ: FEYE), the intelligence-led security company,
today announced that it has been named a key partner in the United
States Army Cyber Command (ARCYBER) efforts to keep pace with today’s
adversaries and evolving cyber threats.
As part of a new $905 million, five-year award, Perspecta Inc. (NYSE:
PRSP) has subcontracted with FireEye to enhance cyber operations and
global mission support for ARCYBER. Under the Cyberspace Operations
Support task order, FireEye will provide professional services to assist

(DCO), cyberspace incident response, and cyberspace exercise support and
training.

Army networks, as well as delivering cyberspace effects against
adversaries to defend the nation.
FireEye Brings Cybersecurity Expertise to Operational Command
“The strength of U.S. national security depends in part on effective
cyber warfare and staying ahead of evolving cyber threats. Being
selected for this operation serves as further testament to the level of
intelligence and quality of our experts around the world,” said Ron
Bushar, CTO and Vice President of Government Solutions at FireEye.
“FireEye is uniquely positioned to see ARCYBER through this cyber
defense transition due to our extensive actionable intelligence
generation capabilities. We are honored to be chosen to work alongside
Perspecta on this ARCYBER program in pursuit of its mission to keep our
nation, and those who protect us, safe.”
In support of its global mission to strategically elevate the use of
cyberspace capabilities within military operations, FireEye will provide
ARCYBER with best-in-class incident and network response, including
