By On November 20, AccuKnox and Carahsoft Technology Corp. announced a strategic partnership. Under the agreement, Carahsoft will serve as AccuKnox’s Master Public Sector Reseller and Aggregator, making the company’s comprehensive Zero Trust Application, DevSecOps, Cloud and AI Security offerings for IT, OT, 5G, drones, satellites, Internet of Things (IoT) and tactical edge available to the public sector through Carahsoft’s reseller partners and NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V, Information Technology Enterprise Solutions – Software 2 (ITES-SW2) and National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO) ValuePoint contracts.
“Zero Trust Security for Application, Cloud and AI is increasingly becoming imperative. AccuKnox provides government agencies with a platform that delivers Zero Trust Security by design,” said Bryan Maizlish, federal business leader at AccuKnox. “Our partnership with Carahsoft significantly expands our reach, enabling federal, state and local agencies and education entities to procure and deploy relevant, secure and mission-critical digital assets. We are pleased to jointly accelerate AccuKnox’s capabilities into our customer’s operational environments.”
AccuKnox is a Gen-AI powered Zero Trust Cloud Native Application Protection Platform (CNAPP) that provides comprehensive multicloud and on-premise security. The CNAPP platform secures modern, comprehensive, multilayer and system-of-system workloads and devices (Kubernetes, Containers, API, AI/LLM, Agentic AI, IoT/Edge, OT, satellite, drone and 5G) and traditional assets (Virtual Machines) across all public, private and air-gapped clouds.
Focusing on the support of critical Zero Trust and cybersecurity protection for the Golden Dome, AccuKnox unifies relevant cybersecurity compliance, Zero Trust and runtime security protection across space, land, air and sea. The platform provides a comprehensive and multilayered system of systems that is interoperable, integrated and multi-level security compliant, identifying non-compliance, areas of vulnerability and risk and observability of real-time attacks. AccuKnox isolates and shuts down areas compromised by a cybersecurity breach, while protecting the integrity of the Golden Dome through an on-premise, air-gapped solution.
“AccuKnox’s Zero Trust security platform is a critical addition to our technology portfolio,” said Natalie Gregory, vice president for enterprise open source and DevSecOps solutions at Carahsoft. “The comprehensive platform allows public sector agencies and entities to protect themselves against current and emerging threats, and zero-day attacks. AccuKnox provides continuous compliance, a mandatory capability in the current world of AI-powered attacks. We look forward to working with AccuKnox and our reseller partners to expand agencies’ access to this platform, including the Golden Dome, and help them implement Zero Trust Security for applications, cloud and AI, while maintaining operational efficiency and mission readiness.”
