Plans For A
Fla.-Based Security Training Campus
A proposed $100 million facility envisioned as an
extensive security training center has targeted 3,000 acres in Charlotte
County, Fla., for a university-style campus with such areas as gun
ranges, caves, tunnels and a watercraft assault lake.
The center would train FBI, CIA, military and local and state law
enforcement officers -- turning even private security guards into GI
Joes able to protect ports, refineries and other vulnerable areas in the
United States.
Millions of dollars in federal contracts are up for grabs for the
proposed center, named The Grove.

Security
Appliances Market Growth Expected
Research and Markets has announced the addition of
"Worldwide Security Appliance Market: What Businesses are Buying and
Why" to their offering.
Security appliances are an integral part of the noisy and crowded
network security market. Over the last several quarters, two key trends
are impacting the overall security market. One is the integration of
security into underlying equipment and infrastructure. Another is the
continuing cost and complexity of managing security in a multi-vendor,
multi-product environment, which many believe will open the door for
managed security services from trusted brands.
