SteelCloud and Telos Corporation Collaborate to Enhance

SteelCloud LLC, a leading CIS and STIG compliance automation software developer and Telos Corporation, a renowned provider of cyber, enterprise, and cloud security solutions to the world's most security-conscious organizations, recently announced entering into a partnership to assist customers in reducing the complexity of NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF) compliance. Customers gain access to all seven RMF phases via a unified, automated solution.

SteelCloud's ConfigOS capabilities take care of the identify/ categorize, select, and implement components of RMF for technical assets. ConfigOS examines an asset, determining whether Security Technical Implementation Guides (STIG) apply, scanning against the STIG standards, identifying compliance indicators, and automating the remediation of findings. Meanwhile, Xacta incorporates and uses this information during the RMF's assessment and authorization processes, as well as when the monitor step is initiated once authorization to operate (ATO) is obtained.

Working together, ConfigOS and Xacta drive decisions to address identification and selection problems while reporting important indicator metrics required to achieve and sustain ATO. STIG and vulnerability data from ConfigOS are integrated into Xacta and mapped to appropriate requirements as part of Assessment and Authorization (A&A), providing customers with a streamlined approach to gaining necessary permissions. Xacta's workflow automation streamlines the whole NIST RMF workflow, managing validation, analysis, documentation, and accreditation processes from start to end.
