🏛️ Government

Secure, Compliant, Mission-Ready Infrastructure for Federal, State & Local

Public sector missions demand trust, resilience, and evidence.
SolveForce builds and operates networks, security, cloud, and data platforms for federal agencies, state & local government, justice/public safety, and education that are Zero-Trust by default, CUI/PHI/PII-aware, and auditable against NIST 800-53/171, FISMA, FedRAMP, CJIS, IRS 1075, SOC 2/ISO 27001, and CMMC.

🛡️ Zero-Trust Blueprint (Identity → Device → App → Data → Context)

1. Identity — SSO/MFA, short-lived tokens; groups/claims drive policy. → /iam
2. Device posture — MDM/UEM + EDR/XDR; disk crypto; OS minimums. → /mdm • /mdr-xdr
3. Application — sanctioned SaaS, private apps/APIs; admin planes hardened.
4. Data classification — CUI/FOUO/PII/PHI → stronger controls (read-only, watermark, redact). → /dlp
5. Context — geo/ASN/time, session risk, change windows.

Outcome: allow (least-privilege) → step-up (MFA/PAM) → isolate (read-only/RBI) → deny.

🏗️ Reference Architectures (Pick Your Fit)

---

📐 SLO Guardrails (Targets You Can Measure)

Service / KPI (p95 unless noted)	Target (Recommended)
ZTNA attach (user→app)	≤ 1–3 s
SASE POP attach (regional)	≤ 20–40 ms
WAN availability (dual underlay sites)	≥ 99.95%
Metro DCI latency (one-way)	≤ 1–2 ms
Portal WAF added latency (edge)	≤ 5–20 ms
Backup immutability coverage (CUI/PII)	= 100%
Evidence completeness (Sev-1/2, audits)	= 100%

SLO breaches create tickets and trigger SOAR (reroute, scale, rollback, revoke). → /siem-soar

---

🔐 Security & Key Custody

• Encryption— TLS/mTLS/IPsec/MACsec/L1 per path; DNSSEC/DoH/DoT as policy; PMTUD intact for IPv6. → /encryption • /ipv6
• Keys & secrets— CMK/HSM with dual-control & rotation; vault-managed secrets; PKI for device/service certs. → /key-management • /secrets-management • /pki
• Boundary— WAF/Bot, DDoS, API gateways with HMAC/JWS; tokenization/redaction for sensitive data. → /waf • /ddos

---

📊 Observability & Evidence

• Dashboards — WAN SLOs, Zero-Trust decisions, WAF/DLP hits, IR playbooks, backup/DR artifacts.
• Audit packs — access logs, change diffs, key custody statements, enclave diagrams, PSAP/911 tests (where applicable).
  Streams to SIEM; SOAR automates contain/rollback/report. → /siem-soar

1) Protect surface — CUI/PII/PHI systems; mission apps; data classes & tags.
2) Identity & posture — SSO/MFA; device certs; MDM/UEM + EDR baselines; PAM for admins. → /iam • /mdm • /mdr-xdr • /pam

Key terms in plain language

Open a term for a concise explanation of language used on this page.

💡Fiber Internet

Internet delivered through strands of glass using light. Fiber commonly supports high capacity, low latency, and strong upload performance, but availability must be confirmed for the exact address.

⏱️Latency

The time it takes data to travel between two points. Lower latency improves voice, video meetings, cloud applications, gaming, and other real-time services.

🔀SD-WAN

Software-defined wide area networking. It manages multiple connections and chooses paths based on application needs, performance, and policy to improve resilience and control.

🔐VPN

A virtual private network creates an encrypted connection across another network, commonly allowing remote users or offices to access private resources securely.

🧰Software as a Service (SaaS)

Software accessed as an online service instead of being installed and maintained entirely on the customer’s own computers or servers.

♻️Disaster Recovery (DRaaS)

A plan and service for restoring applications, data, and operations after an outage or disruption. DRaaS provides recovery infrastructure through a managed cloud service.

🛡️Cybersecurity

The practices and controls used to protect identities, devices, networks, applications, and data from unauthorized access, disruption, or manipulation.

🚫Zero Trust

A security model that does not automatically trust a user or device because of its location. Access is continuously verified and limited to what is necessary.
