We will provide end-to-end infrastructure support to our corporate client for its network infrastructure, which infrastructure includes both Microsoft and Cisco product, to ensure business continuity and timely resolution in any mission critical situations.

Under the agreement, we will support the hospital's entire network infrastructure, including Cisco equipment, as well as several critical servers. While identifying and taking action to prevent network incidents are critical to any business, these activities can become life-saving in the hospital environment and we are pleased to be able to provide the best in network monitoring services to our clients 24/7/365."
Mr. Sherman concluded, "Over the next year, we expect to generate in excess of $250,000 from these contracts on a combined basis.
