Government Solutions* has been awarded a Trusted Handheld Platform contract by the U.S. Marine Corps to develop and deliver trusted mobile devices. Under the award, AT&T and its technology providers will develop 450 prototype mobile devices for testing, certification, and implementation by the Department of Defense and other stakeholders. These mobile devices will be able to send and receive highly-secure voice, video, and data across multiple security domains and wireless networks – domestic and international.
