ManTech has won a $200 million, 8-year contract with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to create and manage a security operations center.
As part of this work, ManTech will implement its “cell-based” SOC approach to transform the traditional three-tiered SOC model. By leveraging lean agile principles and advanced technology, the cell-based SOC will improve efficiency and cybersecurity effectiveness, the company said.
This partnership between NOAA and ManTech will also empower NOAA’s Cyber Security Center to monitor and protect the entire system of systems supporting NOAA’s global, land, sea, air and space missions.
“ManTech’s partnership with NOAA will bring significant opportunities for innovation and efficiency that all federal government SOCs can benefit from,” said Stephen Deitz, president of the company’s federal civilian sector. “Our cell-based approach, proven in sensitive national security missions for more than a decade, drives efficiencies, accountability and operational excellence in Cyber defense systems.”
