IRVINE, Calif., Feb 24, 2005 /PRNewswire-FirstCall via COMTEX/ -- DynTek, Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: DYTK, DYTKP, DYTKW), a leading provider of professional technology services and IT security solutions, announced today that the State of Florida Technology Office has awarded the company a contract to provide comprehensive risk assessments for state agencies. The initial contract term is two years, with an additional one-year renewal option.

DynTek will support this contract from its regional office in Tallahassee, Florida.
"A contract award of this caliber and magnitude demonstrates the depth of experience and expertise we provide through our security practice," said Steve Ross, DynTek's chief executive officer. "We are pleased and excited to assist the State of Florida in its proactive approach to protect critical information and assets. In addition, we look forward to pursuing additional opportunities on a nationwide basis as other states embark on similar Homeland Security initiatives."
