Press Release Body:


Rockville, MD, June 06, 2008 -- Leading Federal contracts and Federal marketing
solutions provider fedXccel is reporting that Federal agencies continue to increase
spending IT security initiatives.

US Federal IT security spending has grown by 63% in the past five years and is
projected to be $6.8 billion in 2009.
"Agencies are struggling to protect their technology infrastructure from
increasingly sophisticated cyber attacks," said Gaurav "GP" Pal, fedXccel Chief. "IT
security now is nearly 10% of the overall Federal IT budget and Small businesses
need to position themselves as solution providers rather than just presenting
themselves as generic IT Systems Integrators or Network Engineering firms."

"Small businesses are uniquely positioned to help Agencies with nimble and
cost-effective solutions that deliver results quickly - but they need to focus their
efforts," said "GP". "Small businesses need to follow the money - Department of
Commerce, Nuclear Regulatory Commission and National Science Foundation have
significantly increased their IT security spend."
