Mercury Systems Awarded Four More Superior Security Ratings by U.S. Defense Security Service
February 02 2016 - 4:15PM
Mercury Systems, Inc. (NASDAQ:MRCY) (www.mrcy.com), announced that
its headquarters facility in Chelmsford, Mass., as well as its
facilities in Hudson, N.H., Manteca, Calif., and Cypress, Calif.
each received “Superior” security ratings in recent vulnerability
assessments conducted by the U.S. Department of Defense’s Defense
Security Service (DSS). For three of the four facilities, these
represent multiple consecutive “Superior” ratings, the highest
awarded to defense contractors by DSS. Currently, fewer than 10
percent of the approximately 13,500 facilities overseen by the DSS
receive a Superior rating. Including these most recent ratings,
Mercury has received an aggregate of twelve “Superior” ratings
across numerous facilities.
“We are proud and honored to receive these Superior
ratings, and appreciate the high level of trust that the U.S.
government places in our facilities, our processes and our
employees,” said Gerry Haines, Executive Vice President of Mercury
Systems. “These ratings demonstrate our employees’ continued
unwavering commitment to national security and our continuous focus
on principles of industrial security excellence designed to protect
technology and information critical to the men and women putting
their lives on the line for our nation.”
According to the DSS, a Superior rating is reserved
for contractors that consistently and fully implement the
requirements of the National Industrial Security Program Operating
Manual (NISPOM) in an effective fashion, resulting in a security
posture that is superior to other contractors of similar size and
complexity. The facility must have documented procedures that
heighten the security awareness of employees and foster a spirit of
cooperation within the security community.
