C. Thomas McMillen, Chairman and CEO, Homeland Security Capital Corporation;
Vice Chairman, Fortress International Group, Inc.; Chairman and Co-CEO,
Secure America Acquisition Corp., former three-term Congressman from
Maryland
"From the finance sector to our military, from energy
companies to our intelligence agencies, our nation relies upon a vast,
interdependent web of information technology systems. Every day this
infrastructure is under cyber-siege. The tools we have deployed now to
defend against these attacks simply cannot defeat the sophisticated
enemies we now face—organized crime, corporate spies, foreign
intelligence services. According to the General Accountability Office,
cyber-crime costs the U.S. economy at least $117 billion each year.
These attacks may be virtual, but the barbarians are not at the gates,
they are inside our systems.
That is about to change. INTEGRITY Security offers American
government and business the ability to effectively protect their
information and operations against even the most determined attacks.
For the last three years the experts at the NSA, the best in the world,
worked hard to break the INTEGRITY System. They had the source code,
they had all the information possible, and, yet, they couldn't defeat
INTEGRITY. We need INTEGRITY protecting all our vital government and
corporate information and information systems."
Tom McMillen has served as the company's Chairman & CEO
since August 2005. He serves as Vice Chairman of Fortress International
Group Inc., formerly Fortress America Acquisition Corporation, a company

Fitness and Sports from 1993 to 1997. From 1987 through 1993, McMillen
served three consecutive terms in the United States House of
Representatives from the 4th Congressional District.

University as a Rhodes Scholar.
General Eugene E. Habiger, USAF, Ret.;
Former Commander in Chief, US Strategic Command; Former Director of
Security and Emergency Operations, US Department of Energy; Former
President and CEO San Antonio Water System
"Cyber security has historically been a battle between an
offensive capability (hack) that has generally been ahead of the defense
(deny). This fact of life was made painfully aware to me while serving
as Commander-In -Chief of US Strategic Command and as Security Czar for
the Secretary of Energy. Today, that traditional paradigm has literally
been turned upside down with the unprecedented EAL 6+ High Robustness
certification by the National Security Agency for Integrity Solutions'
partitioned real-time operating systems. Cyber warfare has truly
emerged around the world as an operational weapon of mass disruption and
Integrity's innovative technological tools have clearly put the defense
of our government and commercial systems on a level of security
virtually unknown up this point."
General Eugene E. Habiger, USAF, Ret. has more than 35 years of
experience in national security and nuclear operations. In his previous
assignment as the Commander in Chief of United States Strategic Command,
he was responsible for all U.S. Air Force and U.S. Navy strategic
nuclear forces supporting the national security strategy of strategic
deterrence. In this position, he established an unprecedented
military-to-military relationship with his Russian counterparts, which
resulted in extraordinary confidence building and openness. This
initiative was the centerpiece of a 60 Minutes II segment in February
2000 and a CNN special in October 2000.
General Habiger is a Distinguished Fellow and Policy Adviser
with the University of Georgia's Center for International Trade and
Security where he assists with the Center's international programs aimed
at preventing weapons proliferation and reducing nuclear dangers.
Prior to joining the Center, General Habiger was the
President/CEO of the San Antonio Water System, where he was responsible
for the general operations of the System along with the strategic
long-range business and water resources planning for the ninth largest
city in the United States. He also worked as the Department of Energy's
Director of Security and Emergency Operations. As the Department's
"Security Czar", he was charged by the Secretary with changing the
security culture at the Energy Department and establishing a program to
reenergize and restore confidence in the Department's Security Program.
He is a command pilot with more than 5,000 flying hours,
primarily in bomber aircraft. During the Vietnam War, he flew 150
combat missions.
He is also the Chairman of the Board of the Armed Services YMCA,
serves on the Fisher House Foundation of San Antonio and is a Senior
Fellow with the Gorbechev Foundation.
