Overview hack Glasgow-based Student Loans Company (SLC) was set up in 1989 as a not-for-profit, nondepartmental Government body and has a central role in the provision of the governments student finance schemes. In 2003, SLC identified the urgent need to implement a secure infrastructure as part of its corporate governance. Any breach of the system could be damaging both to business but would also have significant implications for the success of the Modernising Government Initiative. Stringent selection criteria are standard procedure at SLC. Compliance with these eventually led to the contract being awarded to QinetiQ to provide a Managed Intrusion Detection System (MIDS) solution to protect the perimeter of the SLC network from attack.
