ECS has won a potential six-year, $528 million task order from the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency's Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation, or CDM, Program Office for data services and integration support.
The federal IT systems integrator said Thursday it will design, build and deliver a platform designed to standardize the integration of cybersecurity data from various CDM platforms across federal civilian executive branch agencies under the CDM Data Services task order with the Department of Homeland Security's CISA.
ECS will provide solution engineering, cybersecurity, testing, program management, operations and maintenance, training and data governance support for the CDM Program Office to facilitate the delivery of a data integration system.
"Over the past five years, we've been providing CDM with a modern, effective cyber dashboard," said ECS President John Heneghan.
"Now we're thrilled to meet the new challenges posed under Data Services, to not only support the cyber dashboard but also modernize the data integration layer. Real-time access to high-quality data is the best defense against our adversaries, and it's an honor to continue working with CISA to make operational visibility a reality," added the 2024 Wash100 awardee.
The CDM program provides federal civilian agencies with cyber situational awareness data and a summary of risk exposure across the government.
The initiative aims to help incident responders detect and mitigate threats and vulnerabilities by providing them with visibility into cybersecurity data.
