Northrop supports DoD’s new cyber strategy
Northrop Grumman announced its support for the US Department of Defense’s (DoD) new cyber strategy that was released on 23 April.
The strategy aims to improve the DoD’s cyber posture and pave the way for future cyber security developments.
Kathy Warden, corporate vice president and president, Northrop Grumman Information Systems, said: ‘Northrop Grumman applauds the DoD’s comprehensive strategy to safeguard our nation’s cyber future.
‘As a leading provider of cyber solutions to the DoD and federal government, we understand the growing complexity, and speed, of the full spectrum threat. This new strategy’s focus on innovation and partnerships will be critical to strengthening our nation’s defensive and deterrent posture.’
Mike Papay, vice president and CISO, Northrop Grumman, said: ‘Recent cyber events worldwide have caused companies and governments to reevaluate their resiliency against a destructive cyber attack.
‘The DoD’s strategic focus on building bridges will help companies enhance their defence against an increasingly sophisticated enemy.’
