In use throughout the Department of Defense, state, local governments and universities, the CENTS platform and the SLAM-R appliance brings a cyber range to life providing a robust environment for evaluating new equipment, validating operating procedures and testing personnel proficiency -- all while greatly improving a company or organizations posture against an ever growing cyber concern.
"Metova is excited about this addition within our cyber portfolio and looks forward to new offerings and capabilities for our federal and commercial clients seeking to thwart the growing threat of cyber attacks," said John Adams, CEO of Metova. "Starting with its introduction in the Department of Defense's first cyber range, CENTS and SLAM-R have been instrumental in improving the way commercial and Defense Sector cyber events are exercised, trained, developed and tested."
The combination of Metova's world-class, "extreme programing" development and training capabilities along with CENTS technology creates a synergistic expansion of Metova's cyber training and Modeling and Simulation (M&S) capabilities, providing an unparalleled Cyber Solution for existing and future customers.
