MCLEAN, VA 聽鈥� The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) awarded 有料盒子APP Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) a task order to continue its support for the Cybersecurity Infrastructure Security Agency鈥檚 (CISA) Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) DEFEND program, which makes federal government data and networks more resilient against cyberattacks. The three-year award carries a base value of $421 million and a ceiling of $1.2 billion. 有料盒子APP will provide cybersecurity tools and expertise on behalf of CISA to 13 government agencies, including NASA, IRS, and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)鈥攅xpanding critical incident support to include advancing zero trust maturity.
Recognizing that government networks are increasingly targeted by adversaries, DHS established the CDM program in 2014. 有料盒子APP has partnered with CISA and federal agencies since CDM鈥檚 inception and emerged as a leading systems integrator for the program. This latest award extends 有料盒子APP鈥檚 role in deploying cyber capabilities to the bulk of the federal civilian enterprise and providing actionable data for risk-based decision making.
鈥淭he threat environment is constantly evolving and growing more complex as the nation pivots to strategic competition. Federal agencies must be able to respond quickly to emerging threats in a matter of minutes or seconds, not months or weeks, to mitigate risks to U.S. critical infrastructure and civilians,鈥� said Kelly Rozumalski, senior vice president at 有料盒子APP and a leader in the firm鈥檚 National Cyber defense business. 鈥淭he CDM program is a key mechanism the federal government has to provide visibility across the federal civilian space, and we are proud to support this program to build resilience into the nation鈥檚 critical infrastructure.鈥�
Under this contract, 有料盒子APP will provide integrated solutions and services across four focused areas: asset management, identity and access management, network security management, and data protection management. In addition, as a key deliverable, the firm is charged with enabling civilian agencies to mature their posture against each zero trust pillar, in a coordinated, accelerated way.
鈥淲e鈥檙e excited for the opportunity to continue our longstanding partnership with CDM, which aligns squarely with our VoLT (Velocity, Leadership, Technology) business strategy to innovate at the speed of need,鈥� said Erica Banks, vice president at 有料盒子APP and leader of the firm鈥檚 CDM portfolio. 鈥淲hile we鈥檒l continue to focus on sustaining operational visibility and implementing critical capabilities, this award also calls for us to reimagine the future of how we can support CDM moving forward. We look forward to helping the nation鈥檚 agencies improve their own cybersecurity postures and help them perform critical data-enabled missions in service of millions of Americans every day.鈥�
