Company description: Named one of the nation's "Top Five" information protection services firms, Trident Data Systems offers a wide variety of comprehensive network security services to the U.S. Government, intelligence communities and commercial organizations.

With headquarters in Los Angeles and major offices in the Metropolitan Washington, D.C., area, Texas, Colorado and Florida, Trident offers a complete range of professional consulting and support services allowing organizations to communicate and compute securely.

Since its origin in 1975, the company has earned an international reputation for expertise in designing and implementing network security measures and technologies, firewall implementation and training, risk management, security policy development and systems security integration.

Trident's unique position in the information protection market results from its ability to provide a three-tiered approach, which includes its world-class security consulting services, its role as one of the nation's largest value-added resellers according to VARBusiness, and its nationally accredited network security courses.

Trident Data Systems experienced its 23rd consecutive year of sales growth in 1998. It was a record year for earnings, as sales revenues exceeded $91 million. Continued growth is expected in 1999, as Trident continues to develop its traditional U.S. Government business base, while also experiencing rapid growth in the commercial information protection markets.
