How an engagement works
We start with the program you have.
You do not need a clean package or a perfect starting point. We begin with the system, deadlines, and review history already in front of you.
Take ownership of the work
We set priorities, identify owners, close documentation gaps, and keep the technical and compliance work moving together.
Support the authorization decision
We prepare the package for review, work through assessment questions, and help program leadership resolve what remains.
Keep the ATO current
After authorization, we maintain evidence, POA&Ms, scanning, change records, and the continuous monitoring schedule.
