Request Access

Purpose-built for government. Not just another SaaS.

PolicyCortex collects compliance evidence inside your own cloud boundary and builds your SSP, POA&M and assessment package from it, for NIST 800-53 and 800-171, CMMC and continuous ATO. Your assessor or authorizing official can check every record without taking our word for it.

The product, shown with illustrative demo data.

Run it in your own Azure Government or Azure commercial subscription, on your own Kubernetes cluster, or on the hosted service. It supports Azure Government, AWS GovCloud (US) and GCC High.

Our mission is to give government programs, and the companies that serve them, a record of their controls, changes and automated actions that an assessor or authorizing official can check for themselves, without taking anyone's word for it, ours included.

The Platform

From live cloud state to an assessor-ready package.

Five-state control readiness, owned remediation lineage, and one-click SSP, POA&M, SAR, and OSCAL 1.1.2 exports. In a customer-operated installation they are generated inside your own cloud boundary, with no telemetry to PolicyCortex.

  • Continuous control readiness: Live evaluation and cryptographic sealing across every connected resource.
  • In your boundary: Available as a customer-operated installation in your own Azure Government or Azure commercial subscription or on your own Kubernetes cluster, delivered with our engineers. Supports AWS GovCloud (US) and GCC High.
  • Recomputable package: Assessors verify the evidence stream in the exported package offline.

Runs where your system runs

In a customer-operated installation, delivered with our engineers, collectors, the policy engine and the evidence store run inside your own Azure Government or Azure commercial subscription, or on your own Kubernetes cluster. They support Azure Government, AWS GovCloud (US) and GCC High, and your evidence stays in your boundary.

One record for every framework you answer to

One evidence record maps to NIST 800-53 Rev. 5 at the Low, Moderate and High baselines (the basis of the FedRAMP baselines), NIST 800-171 Rev. 2 and CMMC Level 2, and exports OSCAL 1.1.2 for FedRAMP 20x.
