Federal Systems Are Prime Targets
In FY2023, U.S. federal agencies reported over 32,000 cybersecurity incidents. The MOVEit data breach exposed sensitive data across multiple departments. (Sources: gao.gov, Wikipedia)
Compliance Isn't Enough - Resilience Is Required
GAO has issued over 4,000 cybersecurity recommendations since 2010, with 850+ still open in 2023. Compliance alone is insufficient. (Source: GAO)
Cloud, AI, and Interoperability Expand the Attack Surface
Modern tech adoption increases exposure. EO 14028 and the National Cybersecurity Strategy emphasize Zero Trust and secure software supply chains. (Source: GSA)
Cyber Strategy Is Operational Strategy
Cyber is fundamental to operational continuity and national security. FISMA mandates agency-wide information security programs. (Source: CISA)

Meeting
the Moment
The stakes are high and success demands more than just new tools. It requires deep mission understanding, proven delivery capability, and unwavering accountability. That’s where Gritter Francona comes in.
DevSecOps
In modern development cycles, waiting until “after” to secure code or infrastructure invites risk. We shift security left, embedding automated scans, policy enforcement, and robust threat modeling from the earliest design phases.
Integrate security checks into each sprint, preventing vulnerabilities before they reach production
Automate compliance validation (e.g., SCA, SAST) within the CI/CD pipeline
Develop secure coding standards and train teams on “secure‐by‐design” principles
Penetration Testing
Our red‐team exercises emulate advanced persistent threat (APT) tactics, probing applications, networks, and even human workflows to uncover hidden weaknesses. By understanding how adversaries think and operate, you can remediate critical gaps before they’re exploited.
Conduct external and internal pen tests against web apps, APIs, cloud environments, and endpoints
Include social‐engineering components (phishing, vishing) to test people as well as systems
Deliver detailed, executive‐level and technical reports that prioritize remediation and track progress
Vulnerability Assessment
Identifying every asset (servers, endpoints, cloud workloads, third‐party software) and continuously scanning for known weaknesses is essential. We align with NIST and CVSS scoring, so you can prioritize fixes by actual risk.
Perform comprehensive asset discovery and classification (including shadow IT)
Run scheduled and on‐demand vulnerability scans against networks, hosts, containers, and applications
Provide dashboards and metrics to track remediation status, mean time to fix (MTTF), and residual risk trends
Cyber Hunt
Automated tools catch many threats but can’t find stealthy or novel malware. Our human‐in‐the‐loop hunting team uses threat intelligence, behavioral analytics, and forensic analytics to detect anomalous patterns before they escalate.
Deploy advanced sensors to collect and analyze endpoint telemetry
Fuse open‐source and commercial threat intelligence feeds to identify TTPs (tactics, techniques, and procedures)
Conduct proactive hunts through logs, memory, and network flows—searching for indicators of compromise (IOCs) and unknown threats
Identity and Access Management (IAM)
Every compromised account is a potential breach. We design and implement least‐privilege frameworks, enforce multi‐factor authentication (MFA), and monitor identity behaviors to stop attackers from moving laterally.
Architect and deploy Zero Trust IAM solutions (RBAC, ABAC, MFA) aligned with NIST 800-207
Modernize or consolidate legacy directories (AD, LDAP) into unified cloud or hybrid identity platforms
Build continuous authentication and adaptive‐access controls, flagging anomalous sign-in attempts or insider misuse
Veteran-Owned. Mission-Tested: Defense-grade security mindset and accountability.
Security-Embedded Delivery: Cyber is integrated in every phase, not an afterthought.
Standards-Driven + Agile: We align with FISMA, NIST, FedRAMP, and Zero Trust.
Integrated Expertise: From DevSecOps to IAM, our cyber teams are mission-aligned.
Let's Secure the Mission
Cyber threats evolve daily - your defenses should too. Partner with Gritter Francona to build resilient, secure, and mission-aligned systems.
