Why what we do matters
Helping Drive Assurance & Integrity
Government and Industry buyers have growing supply chain risk management expectations and require that vendors demonstrate commitment to hardware and software security. Confidence comes from documented assurance, independent validation and demonstrated alignment with recognized frameworks.
Strengthen Confidence with Stakeholders:
- Reduce friction in customer diligence and procurements
- Enhance credibility in high-value and regulated environments
- Demonstrate maturity as a competitive differentiator

How we work
A Holistic Approach to Supply Chain Security
It is essential to have a comprehensive approach to supply chain security to counter rapidly evolving cyber threats and the ever-expanding attack surface. Strong programs incorporate ongoing validation measures across every phase of the product lifecycle and extending to all tiers of the supply chain.
Our solutions are traceable and verifiable and can be communicated to the federal government customer with confidence:
Uncover
Illuminate component origin, risk and trust dependencies.
Evaluate
Assess lifecycle governance and build practices.
Identify
Identify where controls are strong and where gaps exist.
Prioritze
Prioritize improvements based on exposure and impact.

Delivering Product Assurance and Security
Our customized approach strengthens technology assurance and reflects durable and auditable mitigations that demonstrate a commitment to transparency.
Challenge: Strengthen end-to-end supply chain transparency to mitigate risks from growing federal scrutiny of Foreign Control and Influence (FOCI) exposure and globally distributed development operations.
Solution: Conduct hardware and software supply chain illumination, inherent risk profiling and prioritized mitigations; share findings and commitments to stakeholders.
Challenge: Understand current level of software security maturity and build a more disciplined, traceable and trusted software development lifecycle; understand insider risk exposure and attack surface.
Solution: Conduct a comprehensive assessment of the software development lifecycle aligned to NIST Secure Software Development Framework and other relevant industry standards; report gaps and establish a prioritized maturity roadmap.
Challenge: Implement substantial security mitigation initiatives.
Solution: Establish or define the appropriate skillset, budget and technologies for major software development lifecycle uplift. Augment internal team and skillsets.
