Leidos

Global giant of innovative solutions for critical infrastructure founded in 1969 in California. A key partner of the US Department of Defense and the US intelligence services. Leidos' portfolio is vast. The conglomerate provides cyber solutions for aviation, public health, energy, medical research, military and space programmes.

According to the Wall Street Journal, it is one of the best-managed companies in America. Leidos solutions are based on in-house laboratory research, testing and patents. They operate at the intersection of information systems and the most demanding, albeit daily, tasks of millions of people. They not only fill gaps in structures, but create a whole new quality of collaboration between man and technology. Leidos secures the aviation industry at various levels - from control systems at airports to flight planning and supervision software.

The company designs the entire passenger journey - from crossing the first gate to onboarding. Its handheld drug detectors are the most direct component of the entire security system. This fits in with the company's mission - to "create a safer, healthier and more efficient world through technology, engineering and science".
