Intrusion Inc. (NASDAQ:INTZ) announced the launch of its P.O.S.S.E. (Protecting Our Sheriff’s Security Everywhere) Program, a new initiative that deploys the company’s INTRUSION Shield technology to sheriff’s offices and other public‑sector security teams.
The program is headquartered in Plano, Texas, and is built on a partnership with MyFlare Alert. Shield is a zero‑trust, reputation‑based defense that uses an IP reputation database of 8.5 billion addresses to detect and block malicious traffic in real time. A pilot in Texas during Q4 2025 achieved 100 % adoption and identified dozens of active threats, and the program is now expanding into Missouri, Oklahoma, and Iowa through the same partnership model.
Intrusion’s financial backdrop underscores the strategic importance of the new program. In Q3 2025 the company reported a net loss of $2.1 million, or $0.10 per share, and is expected to post a similar loss in Q4 2025. The DoD contract extension added $3 million in cash, bringing the company’s cash and cash equivalents to $2.5 million. The company has a history of net losses, so the P.O.S.S.E. Program is intended to diversify revenue streams and strengthen its position in the critical‑infrastructure and public‑sector cybersecurity market.
Strategically, the move into law enforcement diversifies Intrusion’s customer base beyond its traditional government and commercial clients. Sheriff’s offices operate with limited budgets and staff, making an autonomous, reputation‑based solution attractive. While past allegations questioned the originality of Shield, the company has received industry recognition, including the ASIS International 2020 Innovative Product Award, and the partnership with MyFlare Alert provides a “Sheriff‑to‑Sheriff” validation model that could accelerate adoption.
CEO Tony Scott said, “We are proud to announce the launch of the P.O.S.S.E. Program, which will help protect law enforcement from the growing number of cyber threats. The Sheriff departments here in Texas face the same number of cyber threats as large enterprises but operate with a fraction of the budget and staff. The P.O.S.S.E. Program will provide Sheriff departments with the threat intelligence they need to ensure that local public safety infrastructure is protected. We look forward to working closely with MyFlare Alert to help expand this program and increase the adoption of our technology in other states.”
The program’s success will be a key indicator of Intrusion’s ability to generate new revenue in a market that is both underserved and highly regulated. While the company’s current financials remain negative, a steady uptake of the P.O.S.S.E. Program could provide a critical tailwind for future profitability, provided the company can maintain cost discipline and continue to demonstrate the effectiveness of Shield in real‑world deployments.
