The initial network constellation includes nine centers, each with a specific focus, including four in Maryland, four in northern Virginia, and one in New Jersey, with further US and foreign expansion expected.
A center located in Maryland near Fort Meade, the National Security Agency, the US Cyber Command, and the Defense Cyber Crime Center will focus on advanced cyber, forensics, malware, and software analytics. The Red Bank, N.J., center will focus on e-discovery, mobile response, cyber threat monitoring, modeling, and simulation.
The Cyber Security Operations Center in northern Virginia serves as the primary location for security operations for Booz Allen Hamilton’s networks and systems. Its services include 24/7 emergency response, mobile forensics, advanced cyber analytics, forensics and intelligence, and network monitoring.
In addition, the network will host three centers for cybersecurity training.
“In today’s world of sophisticated and complex cyber threats, it takes a network to protect a network. The Booz Allen Cyber Solutions Network will provide deeper and broader cyber capabilities and services to our clients on their terms – when they need it and where they need it”, said Joe Mahafee, chief information security officer at Booz Allen Hamilton.
