Department of Defense Enterprise-Grade Solution

During the past several years, SuprTEK has been working with DISA PEO-MA to develop and field the Department of Defense’s Continuous Monitoring and Risk Scoring (CMRS) system that enables USCYBERCOM and other DoD Enterprise level users to monitor and analyze the security posture of millions of devices deployed across the DoD’s networks.
CMRS utilizes SCAP standards such as XCCDF, OVAL, CPE, and CVE to continuously and automatically determine whether an asset is susceptible to vulnerabilities, its compliance level against required patches, and compliance against IAVAs, STIGs, and other enterprise security policies.
The best practices and lessons learned from developing and fielding the DoD’s solution are baked into the PanOptesTM platform.
Incubated from Pioneers of Continuous Monitoring
On 14, Mar 2013 | In Why PanOptes? | By sage7topia
PanOptesTM was developed based on our experience being at the forefront of Continuous Monitoring, working with and integrating technologies and standards from organizations such as the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA), National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), National Security Agency (NSA), United States Cyber Command (USCYBERCOM), and Department of State (DoS).
The PanOptesTM platform leverages technology originally developed by these organizations that pioneered advances in continuous monitoring capabilities. We have evolved these foundational capabilities with significant architectural and functionality enhancements to meet the demands of large scale enterprises and new emerging requirements from the operational community.
