at New York Press Club Event

First Intelligence Community CIO Says Cyberspace is a National Imperative

WASHINGTON, D.C., and MELBOURNE, Fla., May 27 /PRNewswire/ -- Dale Meyerrose,
the first Senate-confirmed chief information officer for the National
Intelligence Community and a recognized thought leader on cyber security,
yesterday spoke to press club members, reporters and other invited guests at
the New York Press Club about the state of cyberspace in America. His remarks
provided an overview of current threats, where the nation stands today, and
where cyber security may be headed in the future in light of the impending
release of the Obama administration's 60-day report on cyber security.

Meyerrose, a retired U.S. Air Force Major General who is now vice president
and general manager for Cyberspace Solutions at Harris Corporation (NYSE:
HRS), is a strong advocate of the need to elevate cyberspace to a national
imperative in order to make it a trusted domain for both government and
private sectors.

"Cyberspace is indispensable to modern society, underpinning every economic
sector of the world," Meyerrose said. "It's hard to overstate its 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. We can't afford to continue a
business-as-usual approach."

A recognized leader in cyberspace intelligence and security, Harris has been
using state-of-the-art technology assessment techniques and architecture
engineering for decades to define and operate secure networks supporting
nationally critical programs. Harris currently operates three of the nation's
largest secure networks, including the FAA Telecommunications Infrastructure,
the National Reconnaissance Office Patriot network, and the Navy Marine Corps
Intranet.

The company's technology countermeasures and monitoring capabilities
proactively safeguard vital information assets supporting the missions of U.S.
military, intelligence, transportation, and commerce customers. Harris
recently expanded its cyber security capabilities with the acquisition of
Crucial Security, Inc., a premier provider of cyberspace solutions for law
enforcement and intelligence agencies.
