Vulnerability-Based Cybersecurity Assessments

As Army Futures Command (AFC) accelerated its modernization mission, the cybersecurity landscape grew increasingly complex. Traditional perimeter defenses — firewalls and network intrusion detection systems — were no longer sufficient to detect stealthy cyber-attacks that bypass conventional security layers. AFC needed a partner who could deliver vulnerability-based assessments in the field, integrate cybersecurity into the DevSecOps development pipeline, and maintain continuous Risk Management Framework (RMF) accreditation across multiple geographically dispersed Army Battle Lab locations.

The stakes were clear: the systems being protected — including ArCADIE and Forge — are the authoritative digital backbone for Army architecture and capability development. A breach would compromise the Army's most sensitive modernization data.

JANUS delivered a comprehensive cybersecurity capability built on machine learning-powered Deep Packet Inspection (DPI) to detect threats that evade traditional defenses. Our team established continuous vulnerability-based assessments aligned with Zero Trust principles — verifying every user, device, and connection before granting access to critical systems.

We accelerated the integration of cybersecurity into the AFC MADE Cloud DevSecOps pipeline, enabling development teams to maintain agility without sacrificing security posture. JANUS leads complete Information Assurance and cybersecurity services including RMF compliance, accreditation management, and coordination with the Cyber Security Service Provider (C5ISR) and AFC infrastructure teams.

Our certified cybersecurity professionals deliver annual FISMA self-reporting, IA test plan updates, disaster recovery simulation, and proactive accreditation management — ensuring the Army's most critical modernization environments remain hardened against evolving threats.

JANUS transformed AFC's cybersecurity posture from reactive to proactive, delivering machine learning-powered assessments that identify vulnerabilities before adversaries can exploit them. Our Zero Trust implementation ensures that every access request to ArCADIE, Forge, and related systems is verified and validated.

By embedding cybersecurity into the DevSecOps pipeline, JANUS enabled development teams to ship faster while maintaining continuous ATO compliance — proving that speed and security are not mutually exclusive in modern defense software development.
