Allied Minds Announces That Subsidiary Companies Whitewood, Percipient Networks and Optio Labs are to Participate in RSA Conference 2016

Allied Minds (LSE: ALM), an innovative U.S. science and technology development and commercialization company, is pleased to have several of its leading-edge subsidiaries present new mobile, cyber- and crypto-security solutions at RSA Conference 2016 (www.rsaconference.com) in San Francisco this week.

RSA is the world’s largest information security event that aims to support organizations’ efforts to stay ahead of cyber-threats. Senior executives from Whitewood, Optio Labs and Percipient Networks will represent their companies at RSA to discuss their latest products in mobile, data protection, network and crypto-security. The technology solutions presented by these companies emerged from innovations developed at federal research institutions across the U.S. Allied Minds has developed relationships with 34 federal research centers, ranging from The MITRE Corporation to Virginia Tech’s Hume Center for National Security and Technology and Los Alamos National Laboratory to commercialize their inventions.

"We are building technologies that are at the cutting edge of R&D, and bringing them to market to the benefit of commercial industry as well as for the U.S. government,” said John Serafini, Senior Vice President of Allied Minds. "The technologies offered by Whitewood, Optio Labs, and Percipient are prime examples of this process leading to security solutions for today’s climate of heightened cyber-security risks.”

Richard Moulds, Vice President of Strategy for Whitewood, will be presenting demonstrations of the company’s new netRandom™ suite of products that are designed to transform the way high-quality true random numbers are accessed across traditional datacenter, cloud, mobile and embedded systems. The netRandom system as well as Whitewood’s flagship Entropy Engine will be on display at booth 4915 at RSA.
