An Emerson Process Management spokeswoman said the information is proprietary but it wouldn't help terrorists seeking to disrupt systems. "It's a highly valued computer and software, but this is not a Homeland Security matter," said spokesman Susan Comiskey. She said the items - worth about $73,000 - were taken off a loading dock by a security officer employed by Securitas, an international firm based in Parsippany, N.J. The company has a Pittsburgh regional office at Parkway Center. U.S. Homeland Security spokeswoman Amy Kudwa said national security probes are conducted by federal agencies such as the FBI. She doesn't know about any such investigation involving the local theft.
