Telos to modernise BITI networks
Telos Corporation will carry out work to modernise the Base Information Transport Infrastructure (BITI) Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) for the US Air Force, the company announced on 3 October.
The work has been awarded under a Network Centric Solutions-2 task order, and the two year contract is valued at $34 million.
Telos will replace the current network access control (NAC) appliances and upgrade the WLAN components and operating systems at each BITI Wireless location at all worldwide active duty bases and specified guard and reserve bases.
The NAC and WLAN components will be integrated into the Hanscom Collaboration and Innovation Center to support a full cybersecurity certification and accreditation effort.
