“Joining the NIS Team allows me to continue to be a pioneer in delivering the most advanced secure network technology by helping to develop cutting-edge solutions that are better suited for adapting to demands for scalable security and enhanced situational awareness at the network management and command level. With the company’s reputation for exceptional customer service, INTERCEPTOR’s proven performance in the market and continual enhancement, and the rapidly growing awareness of the value it delivers, I know I’m joining an organization with a strong future."
