Following this event, the company retained former senior DOJ officials to conduct an independent review of the matter on behalf of company leadership, engage with DOJ to understand the basis for the search, and work toward the resolution of the investigation.<\/p>\n<p>On December 13, 2024, By Light was formally notified by DOJ through counsel that the investigation into Cole had concluded and no further action was required on the company\u2019s part. This result is consistent with our belief that neither Cole nor any of its employees engaged in inappropriate conduct. By Light appreciates the swift resolution of the matter and the professionalism displayed by DOJ throughout the investigation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThroughout this process, the employees of By Light and our subsidiaries have remained laser-focused on executing the mission of our customers,\u201d said Bob Donahue, Founder and CEO of By Light. \u201cWe continue to deliver state-of-the-art systems that increase both the readiness and lethality of our armed forces\u2014soldiers, sailors, airmen, and Marines\u2014ensuring they are equipped with the tools necessary to remain the world\u2019s preeminent military force.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>By Light was represented in this matter by Morrison Foerster.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About By Light: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By Light Professional IT Services LLC, headquartered in McLean, VA, is an ISO 9001, 20000-1, and 27001 registered and CMMI-Dev Level 3 rated systems integrator that readies warfighters and federal agencies with technology\u00a0and systems engineered to connect, protect, and prepare for every\u00a0next.\u200b We deliver mission-ready modeling, simulation and training with customized trainers and high-fidelity cyber ranges to anticipate the next action\u00a0and dominate the next outcome.\u200b We train cyber-ready workforces and deliver enterprise security from\u00a0identity to monitoring, to detect, deter, and defeat every next threat.\u200b At By Light, our partnership-ready work accelerates missions to\u00a0thrive beyond next.\u200b For more information, visit <a href=\"https:\/\/bylight.com\/\">https:\/\/bylight.com\/<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>LOGO LINK for media: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.Send2Press.com\/300dpi\/25-0218-s2p-bylight-300dpi.jpg\">https:\/\/www.Send2Press.com\/300dpi\/25-0218-s2p-bylight-300dpi.jpg<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>McLEAN, Va., Feb. 18, 2025 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; By Light Professional IT Services LLC (By Light) has been informed by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) that Cole Engineering Services (Cole), its wholly owned subsidiary, is no longer under investigation.
