Information Security and Privacy

Market Relevance

With the growing sophistication of cyber threats, federal agencies must adopt a holistic approach to information security and privacy to protect sensitive information and resources to maintain public trust. Modernization efforts focus on implementing robust security frameworks, advancing Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA), and integrating privacy protections across all systems. By leveraging modern technologies and adhering to federal standards, agencies can address evolving threats and threat plane while ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and safeguarding citizen data.

Our Capability

greenthreads delivers end-to-end information security and privacy solutions, integrating cybersecurity standards, privacy frameworks, and advanced threat detection mechanisms. Our expertise spans designing and implementing robust architectures, ensuring continuous monitoring, and executing incident response plans. We help agencies maintain compliance with federal mandates, such as FedRAMP and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) frameworks, while fostering a proactive approach to security posture improvement.

With a focus on Zero Trust principles and identity management, we provide comprehensive protection for federal IT systems, ensuring information confidentiality, integrity, and availability.

Cybersecurity Standards, Architecture, and Engineering

We design and implement robust security architectures leveraging modern technologies, that are part of the IaaS, PaaS, and SaaS. Our solutions align with NIST frameworks and are based on Risk Management Framework (RMF). We have helped obtained Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) certifications and designed systems for Zero Trust Architectures (ZTA) initiatives within agencies to enhance security posture and user experience through segmentation and stringent verification protocols.

Continuous Monitoring and Threat Detection

Our advanced monitoring services utilize tools recognized and used within the marketplace to enable real-time detection and response to cybersecurity threats. By collecting and analyzing various information (including but not limited to telemetry data, events, logs, errors) we proactively manage vulnerabilities and prevent security incidents, ensuring system integrity and availability.

Incident Response and Management

We design and execute comprehensive incident response plans, ensuring rapid detection, containment, and recovery. Our expertise includes 24/7 operations support, forensic analysis, and vulnerability management, leveraging tools organizational supported tools to address incidents efficiently and align with federal directives.

Identity and Access Management (IAM)

We implement and sustain secure IAM frameworks, including Single Sign-On (SSO), various access control models (ABAC, RBAC, PBAC), and scalable identity management solutions. Our services enable seamless identity verification and authorization processes, supporting secure integration with external partners and large-scale operations.

FedRAMP and Authority to Operate (ATO) Support

We assist agencies in sponsoring and obtaining FedRAMP certification that are not Joint Authorization Board (JAB) sponsored. We help obtain ATOs for systems by preparing detailed required documentation, implementing ConMon processes, artifacts generation and Plan of Action and Milestones (POAM) resolutions. Our expertise ensures alignment with and streamlining agency-specific guidelines, NIST SP 800-53 rev x and other NIST security guidelines for certification processes.

Continuous Improvement and Posture Assessment

We proactively enhance cybersecurity through our scorecard generation and review that conducts regular posture assessments, gap analyses, and vulnerability monitoring. By improving security controls implementation and refining processes, we help agencies align with emerging federal policies and technologies to maintain a strong security posture.
