Todd Gay, director of the Office of Outreach and Engagement for the Georgia Cyber Center, said that SealingTech is a private industry partner taking residence in the Cyber Center and will work with both academia and government in the area.
“We’re looking for unique partners that can come in and collaborate and also help to educate our cyber-security students,” he said. “We are strategic and selective in regards to who leases and rents space here at the Georgia Cyber Center so that we can better fulfill our mission. We want companies with a collaborative and innovative background.”
Gay said that any prospective tenants go through an interview process in order to be considered for partnership with the Cyber Center.

“We have resident partners and also space for rent for training programs for Fort Gordon Department of Defense and classes and events as well,” he said. “The state gave us money to open this building, and we want to develop the workforce and fill jobs. So, our partners are brought in with all this in mind.”
Ed Sealing will be present at a ribbon-cutting 3:15 p.m. Thursday, July 15 at the Georgia Cyber Center, speaking to attendees and highlighting some of SealingTech’s products.

“As our society becomes more mobile and information-driven, the systems they rely on are more interconnected, thus increasing their risk exposure,” according to a prepared statement from Sealing. “To better combat these threats, SealingTech leverages open source-distributed processing and storage software to build near real-time systems, analytics-based intrusion detection to identify anomalies and gap analysis to define security compliance that ensure our customers have situational awareness of their domain.”
