On October 12, Summit 7, a provider of cybersecurity and compliance solutions for the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) and federal contractors, is launching limited beta trials for a breakthrough compliant cloud enclave designed specifically for small businesses preparing for NIST SP 800-171 revisions (Rev) 2 and 3 as well Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) Level 2 self- or third-party assessments: Integrated Knowledge Environment (IKE): Enclave.
The IKE platform has already deployed to over 200 Clients. IKE: Enclave provides an unprecedented Commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS) product offering managed compliance for up to $150,000 less than a traditional enclave in the first year, exclusive to businesses with 25 or fewer employees. Unlike competitor products, IKE: Enclave ensures customers own their tenants, maintain administrative access, and operate within their own domains, rather than a shared community enclave domain. IKE: Enclave provides customers with a fully-isolated Azure Government + Microsoft GCC High tenant.
“Small, innovative, businesses are the backbone of the defense industry,” Summit 7 CEO Scott Edwards said. “They deserve a scalable, affordable, and compliant environment; IKE: Enclave delivers exactly that: a fully isolated, fully customer owned, and fully compliant cloud enclave with a seamless growth path. We’re proud to offer IKE and IKE: Enclave as a breakthrough solution that lowers barriers to CMMC readiness and sets a new standard for what a compliant enclave can be.”
IKE: Enclave delivers a combination of managed IT; security; and governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) services along with full M365 Business Premium licensing.
Once a client has grown out of IKE: Enclave, they can seamlessly transition to a more customized managed enclave through Summit 7, supporting companies of all sizes. This lifecycle ensures companies can begin with an affordable enclave and eventually expand into full enterprise infrastructure at their own pace, entirely within an owned tenant.
