tremendous challenge to secure communications at the machine,
network, data and application layer," said Dr. Fortes. "The Total
Stream Protection Framework is the ideal solution for protecting
the entire communications stream, and Global Command Center enables
the ACIS laboratory to centrally manage the security policies
across the infrastructure used for the project." The Total Stream
