Elbit Systems Ltd. announced today that its wholly-owned subsidiary, CYBERBIT Ltd. (“CYBERBIT”), was awarded a contract to provide the Switzerland-based company, RUAG Defence, with CYBERBIT’s CyberShield – Cyber Security Trainer and Simulator (T&S). The contract is in an amount that is not material to either party, and the T&S will be supplied in the coming months.
