Sunnyvale, CA (Vocus) November 11, 2010

In recognition of outstanding vendors and projects supporting U.S. defense and intelligence efforts, Objectivity, Inc., leading supplier of database management technologies used in some of the most advanced data fusion and analytics systems in the world, was today awarded the GSN (Government Security News) Magazine 2010 Homeland Security Award.

The 2010 Homeland Security Award was given to Northrop Grumman, and Objectivity, Inc. for the company’s role in enabling of the ASA (Analyst Support Architecture) project. Headed by Northrop Grumman and the U.S. Air Force Electronic Systems Center PICSTER program, the ASA platform makes it possible to rapidly integrate very large amounts of national and tactical multi-source data from air defense, maritime domain awareness and intelligence environments, significantly improving event discovery, situational awareness, collaboration and decision processes in support of critical operations.

Northrop Grumman chose Objectivity/DB, Objectivity’s flagship data management product, because it offers a highly reliable and scalable repository for a wide range of complex data types. Following an exhaustive review, testing and benchmark protocol comparing Objectivity/DB to other leading data management technologies, project leaders from both Northrop Grumman and the U.S. Air Force chose Objectivity/DB for its proven advantages in analyzing information in large and complex data volumes.

“We are extremely proud of our history of service to the U.S. government and its coalition partners,” states Jay Jarrell, president and CEO of Objectivity. “This award is yet another validation of our efforts in support of mission critical operations around the world today, and we are very pleased to be recognized by GSN, an excellent publication and source of information for those working in homeland security.”

The GSN Homeland Security Awards salute government officials and agencies who have created cost-effective and efficient programs in support of defense and national security, along with vendors of software and physical products whose innovative technologies help protect nations from all types of threats.

During the evening General McCaffrey, president of BR McCaffrey & Associates, adjunct professor at the United States Military Academy at West Point and distinguished expert commentator for NBC Television, was also presented with the 2010 GSN Award for Extraordinary Leadership and Service in Homeland Security.
