General Skip Vincent to Headline PESA AFCEA Webinar

USAF General with extensive Pacific and Middle East experience provides real-world examples where secure video, audio, and control are needed for information superiority.

HUNTSVILLE, Ala. - Sept 14, 2021 - PESA Switching Systems, a global developer of high-performance secure, video, audio, USB and KVM distribution, announced today that Brigadier General Edwin (Skip) Vincent, USAF (Ret) and Chairman of the The Hawaii Pacific Foundation, which includes Echelon Services, will join them on the AFCEA Webinar regarding the importance of Secure Video Distribution for JADC2 and Information Dominance on Thursday, September 23, 2021, at 1:00 (13:00) Eastern Time. (Register for the webinar HERE)

General Vincent served over 37 years in the USAF. He has commanded at squadron, group, and wing levels and commanded in combat during the Balkans conflict and recently in the Middle East. Before retiring, General Vincent served as Assistant to Director of Strategy and Policy in the then United States Pacific Command. He played a key role in the Pacific Command's effort to shape and maintain regional security by developing diplomatic, economic, and military policies, including building and maintaining military-to-military and political-military relationships among the 43 nations within the Pacific region that covers 51% of the globe. Activities include disaster management, humanitarian assistance, homeland defense, appropriate oversight of reserve component matters, and, as a senior leader within the directorate, oversight of strategy and policy issues that influence the Pacific region. He has operational experience with information and data vulnerabilities that impact operational security, personnel, resources, and mission success. As a proponent of technology's role in solving global security issues, his experience in these areas is especially relevant.

We are honored to have General Vincent join us in discussing secure video distribution on the AFCEA Webinar, said Howard Sutton, executive Chairman of PESA. General Vincent has a solid reputation and lends credibility to our use-cases by having encountered some of the issues our solution solves.

The Hawaii Pacific Foundation (HPF) is a non-profit organization that supports disadvantaged communities. To that end, HPF operates a portfolio of businesses, including Echelon Services, a provider of expert engineering, science, and analysis to the US Government.

At Echelon we are always looking for solutions for mission critical applications that help make the world a safer place, stated Steve Daly, Providing secure distribution of video, audio and USB signals while preventing unintentional access or leaks is foundational to achieving success.

In addition to serving as the Chairman of The Hawaii-Pacific Foundation (https://www.hpfsps.org/about), Mr. Vincent also serves on the board of several other organizations. Most notable are the Asia Pacific Economic Cooperation's (APEC) Disaster Response Risk Reduction sub-committee, the Minuteman Institute for National Defense Studies (MINDS).
