Latest News

[Satellite TODAY 10-24-12] Advanced Micro Devices (AMD), Honeywell, Intel Corp., Lockheed Martin and RSA/EMC have founded the Cyber Security Research Alliance (CSRA) as a private, non-profit research consortium formed to develop public-private collaboration addressing complex problems in cyber security, the new organization announced Oct. 24.

CSRA said it seeks to achieve coordinated industry participation to address national cyber security research and development imperatives and bridge the gap between government funded research and development and commercially available products and solutions in cyber security.

Lockheed Martin Information Systems and Global Solutions Vice President Lee Holcomb was named President of the CSRA. Holcomb said CSRA would focus on challenges that are bigger than any one company, consortium, sector or nation.

“The CSRA is organized to leverage expertise, from member companies and partners in government and academia,” Holcomb said in a statement. “Together we hope to create viable, game changing cyber security solutions.”
