Alberta companies reach agreement to establish a Network Security Assurance Center
The Network Security Assurance Center will provide a venue for corporations, government, industry associations, and standards bodies to test the capabilities of The Middle Network(TM), to ensure the privacy of network connections and data security, and to assure the protection of subscribers from data theft and vandalism.

The Center will be operational in late September 2004.
