"As agencies prepare for an increasingly dynamic threat environment, there's a growing demand for secure, modular, and compliant technology that adapts to new mandates and integrates easily into mission systems. As a former law enforcement officer, I want to help agencies not just procure this technology, but fully utilize it to assist the boots on the ground," said Eugene Goldlust, Senior Account Executive at ASSYST.
