i11. Appendix A: Company Overview <br />Company Background <br />Founded on December 27, 1999, Digital Defense, Inc. is a privately held IT Security company that has <br />become a leading provider of proactive network security risk assessment solutions. We have served over <br />2,000 clients across North America to date, and we are capable of performing our network security <br />services for clients anywhere in the world. <br />The key to Digital Defense's strategic and competitive advantage is two -fold: <br />• Digital Defense has highly skilled network security analysts, including U.S. military - <br />trained experts who held security clearances during their careers with the U.S. Government. <br />• Digital Defense has developed service delivery platforms that enable the company to <br />remove cost and complexity as barriers to security for our clients. <br />Digital Defense's highly -automated security solutions combine the technical expertise of our analysts with <br />a state-of-the-art security operations platform that encompasses the most up-to-date security techniques, <br />threat detection capabilities, and information in the network security industry of today. <br />Facilities <br />Located in San Antonio, Texas, Digital Defense's Secure Network Operations Center (SNOC) employs <br />industry -standard protections such as PIN controlled access, closed-circuit cameras, and a variety of other <br />systems and procedures to safeguard and secure client data. The 14,000 square foot facility is comprised <br />primarily of concrete and steel with two security levels separating the operations facilities and data center. <br />Access to the SNOC is granted to Digital Defense personnel only on a "need to have" basis, further ensuring <br />that client data is only viewed and/or reviewed by those Digital Defense personnel involved in serving your <br />needs. <br />Our Data Center is physically separate from our SNOC and requires separate access authentication restricted to <br />a very limited number of Digital Defense employees, providing the highest level of security possible for the <br />systems that store information about your network's security. <br />Personnel <br />All Digital Defense employees are subjected to extensive background investigations. These investigations <br />review areas such as: <br />• Personal credit history; <br />• State and federal criminal records; <br />• Civil cases such as bankruptcy, divorce, etc.; <br />• Liens and judgments. <br />These investigations are repeated annually to ensure that our employees maintain the highest personal and <br />ethical standards and are not prone to being compromised personally. <br />qfl a0 I)et,_ n v , finc. 9000 a II o,so o V ii ve, ".,lAte NO, Smi Aink k), I X /8,11 )If n1'I 0 u e 111 ! r <br />W vu J1g1tfldd0NSV.0011111 <br />
