ORLANDO, Fla., — Metova CyberCENTS, a market and technology leader in platform based, high fidelity, cyber simulators and cyber range environments, announced today that through the Consortium Management Group, the Program Executive Office for Simulation, Training, and Instrumentation (PEO-STRI) has awarded the company a contract for the Persistent Cyber Training Environment (PCTE) Cyber Innovation Challenge (CIC) #1 under the Consortium for Command, Control and Communications in Cyberspace (C5).
Metova CyberCENTS, a Division of Metova Federal, is one of four companies selected to integrate technologies to create a best-of-breed PCTE prototype solution. The result of the effort will be an engaging user experience based on commercial cyber environments and gaming technologies capable of delivering individualized and team training for the Department of Defense (DoD) Cyber Mission Forces (CMFs).
Metova CyberCENTS will support four primary cyber range technology areas:
Metova CyberCENTS President, Bill Dunn said, “The PCTE CIC1 award is an important milestone for Metova CyberCENTS and the DoD approach to cyber training. The Government did their due diligence in putting together a highly specialized team that will collaborate to bring PEO-STRI’s vision for PCTE to life. It is extraordinary to see a diverse set of industry leading companies, with proprietary products, come together to integrate their technology to deliver a best-of-breed solution for cyberwarfare training. PEO-STRI is to be commended for orchestrating this evolution.” Mr. Dunn further added: “We have followed the progression of this opportunity, watching it grow into its current state. The requirements are in line with our CENTS® product line which has been in use within the cyber community for well over a decade, so it is especially gratifying to be selected as one of the four inaugural companies to build the prototype.”
In support of the PCTE effort and our work in Cyber Integration with Warfighter Training Platforms, Metova CyberCENTS is pleased to announce the opening of our newest office in the Central Florida Research Park. This office, located at 13501 Ingenuity Dr, opened its doors on June 1st and we will be holding our opening ceremony to celebrate with customers and partners on July 16th.
