Operational Capabilities

• Provides improved situational awareness of the cyber domain so that our government can effectively defend the nation’s critical infrastructure from cyber adversaries, thus improving national security
• Enables agencies to maintain a stronger security posture of their systems to ensure that the computing and networking infrastructure that they depend on to carry out their missions are always secure and available
• Enables system owners to assess the pervasiveness and operational impact of system vulnerabilities so that resources can be prioritized and directed to remediate the ones that have the greatest probability of exploit and impact
• Streamlines the certification and accreditation process allowing critical systems to be fielded more quickly to support urgent mission needs
• Saves costs by streamlining resource-intensive information assurance processes so that those dollars can be redirected towards more critical needs

How it Works

PanOptes^TM uses a Service Oriented Architecture (SOA)-based publish/subscribe architecture for data consumption from multiple source systems and a custom-built advanced data analytics platform capable of processing millions of records of enterprise security data such as asset inventory, configuration, compliance, and vulnerabilities. It provides a web-based user interface with rich visualizations for risk dashboards, custom reports, and ad-hoc querying capabilities. Built upon a foundation that uses NIST standards and best practices, PanOptes^TM can integrate with enterprise security solutions through SCAP-compliant interfaces.
