The National Security Agency has cleared seven companies to take part in a  
program to help agencies and private industry evaluate their information  
security. 
 
The Infosec Assessment Training and Rating Program validates companies  
qualified to assess information security. The companies were evaluated  
against NSA's Infosec Assessment Capability Maturity Model. The  
participating companies use either NSA's Infosec Assessment Methodology  
or similar techniques. 
 
IATRP is intended to help agencies comply with Presidential Decision  
Directive 63 and other regulations that call for agencies to conduct  
vulnerability assessments on information systems. Participating companies  
can provide training in the Infosec Assessment Methodology and are rated so  
customers can decide whether a provider meets its needs. 
 
The participating companies are Backbone Security.com Inc. of East  
Stroudsburg, Pa.; Booz, Allen & Hamilton Inc. of McLean, Va.; Computer  
Sciences Corp.; Electronic Data Systems Corp.; Lucent Technologies Inc. of  
Murray Hill, N.J.; SRA International Inc. of Arlington, Va.; and TrustWave  
Corp. of Annapolis, Md.
