“Federal agencies need more than a tool for producing compliance documents – they need a platform that helps security teams sustain compliance and make informed risk decisions,” said John B. Wood, chairman and chief executive officer, Telos. “Xacta combines decades of federal risk management experience with practical AI assistance in a secure SaaS environment. That combination gives agencies a strong foundation for modernizing cyber compliance while allowing their teams to focus more of their expertise on managing risk.”
The Commerce OIG award follows Telos’ recently announced Xacta awards supporting the Department of Health and Human Services, the National Archives and Records Administration, the Office of Naval Intelligence and the Air Force Intelligence Community. Together, these selections demonstrate continued adoption of Xacta across federal civilian, defense and intelligence organizations.
