Elbit Systems Provides Singaporean ST Electronics (Info-Security) with a Cyber Security Simulator for Civil Applications
Elbit Systems announced today that it provided ST Electronics with a Cyber Security Simulator. Enabling users, individually or as a group, to locate, respond and prevent cyber-attacks, while experiencing simulated network protection conditions, the simulator provided to ST Electronics will also present various network protection scenarios, conduct follow-up debriefing and evaluate the results.
