"Cyberspace is the global domain within the information environment consisting of the interdependent network of information technology infrastructures, including the Internet, telecommunications networks, and computer systems. It is indispensable to modern society, underpinning every economic sector of the world. It is hard to overstate cyberspace's importance, its ubiquity, and its impact to national security, banking, manufacturing, goods and services, energy, air traffic control, medical care, food supply, knowledge, and life's ordinary routines." (Dale Meyerrose is vice president and general manager of Cyber Programs for Harris Corporation.)

Trusted with securing the nation's most important national information assets, Cyberspace is the global domain within the information environment consisting of the interdependent network of information technology infrastructures, including the Internet, telecommunications networks, and computer systems. It is indispensable to modern society, underpinning every economic sector of the world. It is hard to overstate cyberspace's importance, its ubiquity, and its impact to national security, banking, manufacturing, goods and services, energy, air traffic control, medical care, food supply, knowledge, and life's ordinary routines.

Harris Corporation, a world leader in cyber and information assurance (IA), has been defining, building, and operating secure networks supporting nationally important programs that incorporate state-of-the-art technology for decades.

We understand that mission success requires building information assurance and high availability into everything we do—from networks for customers like the Federal Aviation Administration and the Department of Health and Human Services, to architecting solutions that circumvent cyber attack and assure Department of Defense mission success. Backed by hundreds of professionals, our technology countermeasures and monitoring capabilities proactively safeguard vital information assets supporting the critical missions of U.S. military, intelligence, transportation, and commerce customers.

Harris supports the full spectrum of cyberspace operations, architecting and providing the tools, infrastructure elements, and tailored mission management capabilities required to ensure that the cyber lifeblood of our customers' enterprises continue to support their missions.

The company architected, built, and currently operates three of the largest secure networks that carry vital information for the U.S. government, including the FAA Telecommunications Infrastructure (FTI), the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO) Patriot network, and the Navy and Marine Corps Intranet (NMCI).
