The Challenge The Small Business has provided logistical support and conference planning for agencies within the Federal Government for many years. Recently through successes from prior engagements the opportunity arose to deliver a Small Business Leadership Conference at a program level. The organization needed to establish a website capable of communicating all pertinent information about the conference as well as handle registration and payment information on a very limited budget and a short window for completion. |

The Results The client has been able to successfully start gaining needed sponsorship and give the appropriate sponsor recognition. Our ability to work with the company and provide real-time design updates allowed them to be part of the company image redesign. |
Client US Federal Agency |
Type Database Design and Development |
The Challenge The agency was going through restructuring but had completed three years of work that was collected in various documents. The agency needed a document repository and retrieval system that was compatible with their normal software packages. The system also had to run on a CD or DVD disk since there was policy in place prohibiting the installation of any software on their systems. |
The Solution BlackStream designed a relational information repository that provided document lookup and retrieval based upon keyword searches. The system included:

The Results The client was so overwhelmed by the ease of use and compact functionality of the system that they have asked for us to look for ways in which its use may be expended across other groups within the agency. |
Client International Bank |
Type Network Systems Management |
The Challenge This bank had recently suffered a breech and was in need of an audit in order to meet its compliance regulations. A partner team had the contract to deliver a host of services with regards to the audit but was unable to perform aspects of the Information Assurance component. |
The Solution After being screened by the bank, BlackStream deployed Certified Ethical Hackers to perform exploits on Internet facing devices to determine the bank’s risk exposure. The effort included:
|
The Results We produced a deliverable for the client that not only provided critical information on the exposure level for their Internet presence, but also that contained intelligence gathered through open sources about other avenues that attackers may want to approach them. The client was so impressed by the findings and additional data we provided, they have retained us again for retesting of remediated findings as well as network architecture reviews of their wireless deployment. |
