Reinvent federal cybersecurity at the speed of AI

Build cyber confidence and drive resilience across the federal enterprise

Why this matters

Conventional security strategies are no match for the sophisticated threats aimed at federal agencies today. To stay ahead, federal agencies must maintain secure, resilient operations that adapt to emerging threats while maintaining regulatory compliance and operational continuity—all to ensure mission success and readiness.

How federal cybersecurity is changing

slideText 1 ofText 1

Staying ahead of threats with AI-driven cyber operations

Advanced machine learning capabilities are transforming reactive security into proactive defense. AI-powered systems analyze vast datasets to predict threats, automate responses, and continuously adapt to evolving attack patterns—enabling security operations at machine speed with unprecedented accuracy.

Expanding Zero Trust architecture

The "never trust, always verify" approach is becoming essential as traditional perimeters dissolve. Federal agencies are implementing comprehensive Zero Trust frameworks with micro-segmentation, continuous authentication and fine-grained data access controls to minimize breach impact and protect critical assets.

Preparing for post-quantum readiness

With quantum computers threatening to break current encryption, federal agencies must prepare now. Implementing quantum-resistant cryptography, conducting cryptographic inventory assessments, and developing crypto-agile systems are critical to protect sensitive data against both current threats and future quantum attacks.

Leveraging managed security services to outpace adversaries

MxDR services are reinventing federal cybersecurity with 24/7 monitoring, advanced threat intelligence, and automated response capabilities. By leveraging shared expertise and AI-powered tools, agencies can detect and neutralize sophisticated threats while optimizing resources and maintaining compliance.

Securing converged IT/OT

As operational technology increasingly connects with information systems, securing this convergence is vital. Integrated security frameworks that protect both domains simultaneously are essential for safeguarding critical infrastructure while maintaining operational continuity and mission efficacy.

What you can do

Conduct governance risk and compliance and vulnerability and audit management to identify and mitigate risks to the confidentiality, integrity, availability and authentication of information systems.

Safeguard critical infrastructure and sensitive data using integrated cutting-edge technologies with proven methodologies for unparallelled protection and responsiveness.

Enhance the safety and efficiency of industrial operations with robust security measures for OT environments. Utilize strategic assessments, advanced technologies and industry expertise to protect critical infrastructure and ensure secure operations.

Integrate Zero Trust, mobility, quantum and cloud security to meet policy and legislative requirements in a dynamic threat landscape. Strengthen your agency's cybersecurity posture to tackle emerging threats and future security challenges.

Develop quantum readiness with post-quantum cryptography solutions. Assess vulnerabilities, inventory cryptographic assets and implement quantum-resistant protocols to protect sensitive data against current and future quantum computing threats.

What you’ll achieve

Mission continuity amid evolving threats

Maintain operational resilience through advanced threat intelligence and automated security systems that predict, detect and neutralize cyber attacks before they impact critical mission functions.

Regulatory compliance without compromise

Navigate complex federal security requirements while accelerating innovation. Our solutions ensure adherence to FedRAMP, NIST and agency-specific standards without sacrificing agility or performance.

Enhanced digital trust ecosystems

Build stakeholder confidence through transparent security practices, protected digital identities and verifiable data integrity. Create a secure foundation for digital transformation initiatives across your agency.

Optimized security investments

Maximize the value of cybersecurity resources through consolidated tools, streamlined workflows and predictive analytics that identify gaps before they become vulnerabilities, reducing total cost of ownership.
