Lockheed Martin has opened its fourth
Security Intelligence Centre (SIC) in Australia's national capital, Canberra, continuing the company’s
international extension of its cyber defence network.
The SIC builds on over A$10 million of
investment in consolidating Lockheed Martin business operations into a single facility - Lockheed Martin Centennial House - and the establishment
of a NexGen Cyber Information and Technology Centre (NCITE)
in Canberra in 2012.
The Canberra SIC will be manned by a team
of highly skilled and trained Australian cyber intelligence analysts drawn from
Lockheed Martin Australia's employee base.
They will integrate their local operations
into Lockheed Martin's global computer network
defence, while developing their own intrinsic strengths, and contribute to an
active global exchange in cyber capability
and tradecraft.
