Leidos has won a $301 million contract with the U.S. Army to strengthen the Department of War’s Information Network.
Under the 5-year follow-on contract, Leidos will help the DOW detect and defend against cyber threats by monitoring military networks 24/7. The DOW’s global network is used by all U.S. military organizations.
“Resilience is the real measure of cyber defense,” said Steve Hull, president of Leidos Digital.
“Our job is to help protect our nation’s cyber terrain by anticipating increasingly sophisticated threats, responding with speed and keeping critical missions moving. That means equipping our experts with AI-enabled capabilities for stronger cyber resilience, better situational awareness and faster, more coordinated responses that help mission leaders stay ahead of adversaries.”
This continues Leidos’ work with the Army to deliver defensive cyber capabilities for the U.S. and its allies by advancing AI-enabled technologies. The company integrates cyber operations, engineering and technology development to reduce the time between detection and response.
This award also supports Leidos’ NorthStar 2030 strategy.
