Computer Sciences Corp. has won a $52 million contract for the evaluation,
testing and support of biometric technology for the U.S. Department of
Defense.
The four-year deal will see CSC provide the West Virginia-based Biometrics
Fusion Center with biometric technology, the company announced on Tuesday.
It will also supply application research, testing, product evaluations and
technical support around iris scanning, fingerprint scanning and facial
recognition.

Great company IMO. They keep getting HUGE long term contracts. I once
owned it, and sold way too early. I may buy again.
