LAGUNA HILLS, CA--(Marketwire - April 13, 2010) -  Information Management Resources Inc. (IMRI), a service-disabled veteran, woman-owned small business, small disadvantaged corporation focused on professional engineering and information technology services and solutions, has announced the opening of its federal division in Washington, D.C. IMRI's presence in the D.C. metropolitan area places it in close proximity to federal departments and civilian agencies that can benefit from its cyber security and network support solutions.

IMRI's D.C. location underscores its commitment to its customers and partners, which include a variety of federal departments and federal and civilian agencies. Among its major federal clients IMRI counts the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy and U.S. Air Force, as well as the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), Defense Logistics Agency and Department of Veteran Affairs.

IMRI's federal division is headed by Senior Vice President Maronya C. Scharf, Esq. and Regional Executive Director Carl L. Lambeth, U.S. Army Colonel (Retired). Scharf focuses her efforts on strategic planning and business development to expand IMRI's service offerings in technology infrastructure and program management for both federal and civilian agencies. Lambeth oversees IMRI's cyber security solutions specifically for the Department of Defense, Department of Homeland Security and the Intelligence Community. Together, Scharf and Lambeth ensure that IMRI's customers are receiving the best quality assessment of security vulnerabilities, testing, design and implementation of software/systems security features and access control.

"Maronya's experience as an employment litigator and Carl's 30-year experience in communications technology as project manager for both Maneuver Control System (MCS) and Defense Messaging System (DMS) as well as deputy director, Communications & Electronics Command (CECOM) provide our D.C. office with a powerful one-two punch," commented Martha Daniel, IMRI president and CEO. "Their successful yet diverse backgrounds give us the edge we need to provide our customers with the finest information assurance resources available."

Founded in 1992, IMRI offers a comprehensive mix of engineering and technology services based on industry best practices that support a variety of software, hardware, telecommunications and information technology needs. IMRI combines information assurance with systems management, network/systems architecture design and operations expertise to safeguard critical systems. Its cyber security services include the assessment of security threats and vulnerabilities, security testing, design and implementation of inherent software/systems security features, documentation and physical security and access control. In addition, IMRI provides support and services for NERC/CIP compliance.

IMRI is an integrator and services support provider for Lumeta's IPsonar network assurance solution suite. IPsonar is the industry's only product that can discover and alert on unknown/unmanaged network connections and devices. It actively scans the network to collect all data related to network topology, address space, leaks, and device fingerprints. IPsonar maps every asset on a network to visually analyze the connectivity between assets and networks, uncovering cyber security risk patterns and policy weaknesses.

"Over the years IMRI has built a solid reputation in the industry," said Scharf. "We have a 15-year relationship with DISA and a number of strategic partnerships that have enabled us to build an unparalleled cyber security practice. Together, Carl and I plan to leverage our experience with some of the nation's most reputable government agencies and branches of the military to address the growing demand for comprehensive cyber security services and solutions. It's an exciting time of opportunity for IMRI."
