Unisys vs. The Wash Post

Today, the Washington Post ran a Page One story saying the FBI believes Unisys Corp. of Blue Bell, while working on contract to the Department of Homeland Security, "allegedly failed to detect cyber break-ins traced to a Chinese-language Web site and then tried to cover up its deficiencies." At 4:30 this morning, Unisys put out a strong denial saying, in part: “Unisys vigorously disputes the allegations made in today’s article. Facts and documentation contradict the claims described in the article, but federal security regulations preclude public comment on specific incidents. We can state generally that the allegation that Unisys did not properly install essential security systems is incorrect. In addition, we routinely follow prescribed security protocols and have properly reported incidents to the customer in accordance with those protocols." Stay tuned.
