Networx Enterprise is a companion contract to Networx Universal, which was awarded to the AT&T team in March 2007. Under the Networx Enterprise contract, EDS will work with AT&T to compete for task orders for telecommunications, networking and related services. EDS will provide services similar to those offered under Networx Universal.
These include security services such as managed firewall service intrusion detection, anti-virus management, secure managed email, managed e-authentication, and managed tiered security services. EDS will also provide customized design engineering, managed network services, unified messaging, and collaboration support.
Networx Enterprise will allow EDS to work with AT&T’s team to give federal clients greater flexibility and more options for purchasing telecommunications services, said Jim Duffey, general manager of EDS US public sector.
