Security:
Base One To Market Technologies
For War On Terrorism
Base One International Corporation, a leading software company specializing
in
high reliability and high security information storage and retrieval systems,
has entered in to an agreement with Four Star Group, a marketing consulting
firm that bridges the gap between the commercial and government sectors.
Four Star Group will be the exclusive marketing representative to the
public
sector of Base One's patent-pending high speed, high precision database
technologies, which are the key components needed in the United States' war on
terrorism.
"Having surveyed the landscape of technological innovation and assessed the
government's global data mining and data fusion needs, there is no question
that Base One's proprietary technology is years ahead of its time," said
Edward Lee Rapp, president, Four Star Group. "Anyone who fully appreciates the
complexity of the information storage, retrieval and security needs combined
with the requirement for a system that will not be disabled in an attack - as
was the case on September 11th - understands that what Base One has developed
provides a crucial piece of the puzzle in protecting our national
security."
Base One has developed fault tolerant distributed computing systems that
integrate and process massive and disparate databases that enable intelligence
analysts unprecedented access to mission critical information. Implementation
of this technology will arm law enforcement and counterterrorism officials
with the ability to prevent and respond to an attack and includes automated
recovery from hardware and software errors and crashes. An evaluation in
October 2001 by scientists at the Naval Research Laboratory concluded that
this same software would be well suited to use in security applications such
as data mining.
Additionally, Base One has developed groundbreaking security components
that
address key data privacy concerns. Never before has there been a system that
allows the various intelligence and corporate entities tied in to the system
to retain sufficient control of their sensitive data while still permitting
relevant access to approved users. Base One's proprietary security components
leverage high-reliability, transaction processing database systems to control
who should be allowed to view sensitive data or perform restricted operations.
The Company also supplies tools for secure, remote database and user
administration plus grid technology for distributed computing across the
Internet for all known database software.
With unparalleled knowledge of technology, security and intelligence in
both
the private and public sectors, Four Star Group's network of corporate leaders
and military experts identifies and marries public sector business
opportunities with cutting edge technologies developed in the private sector.
By serving as the liaison between these two distinct worlds, Four Star Group
develops unique solutions that effectively address the nation's most critical
information and security needs.
"Four Star Group immediately understood how our software addresses the
intricate data mining and privacy demands of the government's counterterrorism
efforts," explained Steven Asherman, president and chief scientist, Base One
International Corporation. "More importantly, their knowledge of the
government procurement process opens doors to new markets for our product that
previously would have been impossible for us to penetrate. There is no greater
reward than knowing that our product will play a vital role in protecting our
national security," he concluded.
