The Defense Department awarded a $21.4 million contract today to the
Knowledge Consulting Group to write a security plan for DOD's
Counterintelligence Field Activity and the FBI's Foreign Terrorist
Tracking Force.

Knowledge Consulting Group, located in Sterling, Va., will update the
organizations' security guidelines, identify potential security lapses
and provide security support, said Maryann Hirsch, company president,
during a Feb. 18 telephone interview.

DOD "always had security policies in place. But after [Sept. 11,
2001,] it wants improved preparedness," Hirsch said.

The company during the past three years provided systems
infrastructure support services to the Counterintelligence Field
Activity. The contract includes developing safeguards against spies
and moles.
