SANTA BARBARA, CA and WASHINGTON, DC, Nov 11 (MARKET
WIRE) --
INTEGRITY Global Security, a wholly owned subsidiary of Green Hills
Software Inc. and the leading expert in providing High Robustness IT
security solutions using the INTEGRITY operating system, the first and
only operating system to be evaluated by the NSA and certified by NIAP to
EAL 6+ and High Robustness, today announced that Paul B. Kurtz has joined
the INTEGRITY Global Security Board of Advisors.
Mr. Kurtz is a recognized cyber security and homeland security expert. He
served as Special Assistant to the President and senior director on the
White House's National Security and Homeland Security Councils under
Presidents Clinton and Bush where he was responsible for both physical and
cyber security for critical infrastructure protection. He is currently a
managing partner at Good Harbor Consulting where he offers strategic
counsel for identifying security vulnerabilities and mitigating risks to a
variety of clients. Mr. Kurtz was the founding Executive Director of the
Cyber Security Industry Alliance (CSIA), an advocacy group dedicated to
ensuring the privacy, reliability and integrity of information systems
through public policy, technology, education and awareness.
"With increasingly sophisticated adversaries seeking to steal sensitive
information and disrupt critical operations in both government and the
private sector, we must begin to deploy 'leap-ahead' technology. Solutions
built on the EAL 6+ High Robustness INTEGRITY operating system will help
us leap ahead of the adversary while not requiring wholesale changes to
existing infrastructure. INTEGRITY has been deployed to protect some of
our most sophisticated weapons systems and is now available to help
protect critical government and private sector IT systems. I am impressed
by the INTEGRITY solution and encouraged that we can now be protected
from cyber vulnerabilities with INTEGRITY," said Paul Kurtz.
Mr. Kurtz joins two other distinguished members on the INTEGRITY Global
Security Board of Advisors: Thomas McMillen, a former three-term
Congressman from Maryland and presently Chairman and CEO of the Homeland
Security Capital Corporation; and Eugene Habiger, a former Four Star
General (USAF, Retired), who served as the Commander in Chief of the U.S.
Strategic Air Command as well as having been the Director of Security and
Emergency Operations at the US Department of Energy.
"Cyber security is a high priority to the both the Congress and the
Administration and having Mr. Kurtz on our Board of Advisors provides us
with additional insight and experience in being responsive to the efforts
to secure our country's cyber assets. The combination of his public and
private sector background and consummate knowledge of cyber security
issues, policy and solutions is a great addition to this Board. The sum of
their experience, and the counsel they provide, will be invaluable as we
move forward to deploy INTEGRITY based solutions within the United States
Government," said Michael Liacko, Executive Vice President of INTEGRITY
Global Security.
