WASHINGTON, March 21 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Late this morning,
representatives of the Department of State informed The Analysis Corporation
(TAC) for the first time that one of the individuals who had been detected
inappropriately accessing passport files of prominent political figures was a
TAC employee.  The individual was working on contract at the Department of
State.
    This individual's actions were taken without the knowledge or direction of
anyone at TAC and are wholly inconsistent with our professional and ethical
standards.
    TAC has an exemplary record of supporting the Department of State and
other elements of the U.S. Government for close to two decades.  We are fully
cooperating with the Department of State in its investigation.  Specifically,
we have honored the Department's request to delay taking any administrative
action related to the employment of the individual in order to give the
Department's Office of the Inspector General the opportunity to conduct its
investigation.
    We deeply regret that the incident occurred and believe it is an isolated
incident.
