3eTI's VPMS Perimeter Security Solution Receives Information Assurance Accreditation from DoD Agency

3e Technologies International (3eTI^®), an Ultra Electronics company and leading provider of highly secure wireless networks that enable critical systems security, infrastructure security and industrial automation, today announced that it has received an Approval to Operate (ATO) certification for its VPMS solution from a DoD agency. In addition to serving as a first-class accredited perimeter security solution for the DoD, VPMS will make it easier for other Federal agencies to acquire critical infrastructure protection for their sensitive assets via a solution that does not require significant time or resources to implement.

VPMS is a roven solution that has been deployed and operational within DoD for almost 10 years and is the first perimeter security solution to have achieved successful DoD Red Team endorsement and an Information Assurance (IA) approval to operate across a DoD enterprise. The VPMS solution provides real-time video surveillance with integrated analytics for threat detection and classification. Additionally, it provides a FIPS 140-2 validated and Common Criteria certified wireless mesh network that enables mobile sentry access and cost-effective sensor integration. As part of achieving the ATO, the system was tested to ensure it met the Defense Information Systems Agency (News - Alert) (DISA) guidelines for IA.

This accreditation will give other DoD and Federal agencies the opportunity to roll out an already proven solution that will save them significant time and expenditure in deployment with minimal investment in physical infrastructure. Given existing reciprocity agreements between DoD elements, other agencies within DoD may readily employ VPMS without the systems engineering and IA expense associated with adopting a new solution.

"We are very pleased to have received IA accreditation for this highly secure perimeter protection solution and look forward to offering VPMS to other DoD and Federal agencies," said Benga Erinle, President of 3eTI. "This is yet another affirmation of 3eTI's leadership in providing secure wireless solutions to the DoD."
