01 / OVERVIEW

The Federal Threat Landscape Has Already Moved — Has Your Architecture?

Nation-state actors, supply chain compromises, and ransomware operators treat federal targets as routine. Executive Order 14028 mandated Zero Trust, OMB M-22-09 set the timelines, CISA Binding Operational Directives moved deadlines closer, and FedRAMP authorization requirements continue to expand. Perimeter security and annual ATO refreshes are no longer enough.

AGT delivers cyber security the way it actually works in 2026 — continuously, with controls as code, Zero Trust applied to identity and workload, and the audit trail your authorizing official needs. Integrated with our cloud platform and operated 24×7 through our SOC services.

03 / METHODOLOGY
OUR METHODOLOGY

TrustZero™ — Five-Phase Federal Cyber Security Framework Built on NIST RMF

AGT TrustZero

Maps NIST RMF steps directly to Zero Trust implementation, FedRAMP authorization deliverables, and continuous monitoring obligations — so security work serves the audit while reducing actual risk. 100% ATO success rate across every engagement.

  1. Categorize

    System categorization under FIPS 199, threat modeling, impact-level assignment. Output: defensible security categorization.

  2. Select

    Control baseline selection (NIST 800-53 Low/Moderate/High), tailoring, overlay application for FedRAMP, DoD, or CJIS.

  3. Implement

    Security control implementation — preferably as code — with engineering, configuration, and documentation packaged together.

  4. Assess

    Independent assessment, SAR preparation, 3PAO coordination for FedRAMP, authorizing official briefing.

  5. Monitor

    Continuous monitoring, control re-assessment, vulnerability and configuration management, annual ATO renewal support.

WHY ALLIANCE GLOBAL TECH

Cyber Security Practitioners Who Have Personally Obtained Federal ATOs

Most cyber security firms talk about NIST and FedRAMP. AGT engineers have personally executed RMF packages through full ATO sign-off. We bring the playbook, the templates, and the operational instincts — not just the slide deck.

01

100% ATO Success Rate

Every authorization package AGT has supported has reached ATO. No do-overs, no rejected packages, no missed deadlines.

02

Zero Trust Engineering Bench

Practitioners credentialed in CISSP, CISM, CCSP, Azure Security Engineer Expert, and AWS Security Specialty — focused on Zero Trust execution.

03

ISO 27001 Certified Provider

We hold ISO 27001:2013 certification ourselves. Auditable controls over AGT’s own operations, with continuous improvement evidence.

08 / FAQ
FREQUENTLY ASKED

Cyber Security — Common Questions

Common questions from federal contracting officers and agency CIOs about AGT’s cyber security services.

Do you support ATO and continuous ATO for federal systems?
Yes. AGT supports both traditional 3-year ATO cycles and Continuous ATO (cATO) programs — including the engineering, documentation, automation, and authorizing official engagement required for both. Our practitioners have personally taken systems through full ATO sign-off.
Can you support FedRAMP authorization end-to-end?
Yes. We support FedRAMP Moderate and High readiness, 3PAO coordination, gap remediation, and continuous monitoring packages. Reference implementations available for Azure Government and AWS GovCloud environments.
Do you do CMMC?
Yes. We support CMMC Level 1 and Level 2 readiness including SSP, POA&M, and gap remediation. AGT’s own CMMC Level 1 package is already complete as a reference implementation that defense contractors can review.
What is your typical ATO timeline?
Depending on system complexity and starting posture, typical ATO timelines run 4-9 months for a new package and 2-4 months for a renewal. We have driven aggressive timelines to 90 days when the system is well-engineered from the start.
Can you operate the security program once it is built?
Yes — see our Cyber & Security Operations page. We deliver 24×7 SOC, continuous monitoring, SIEM operations, vulnerability management, and incident response under the same engagement or as a follow-on service.
How do you align to CISA Zero Trust Maturity Model?
Our TrustZero framework maps directly to all five CISA ZTMM pillars (identity, device, network, application/workload, data) plus the cross-cutting analytics, automation, and governance dimensions. We deliver a maturity assessment against ZTMM as the first phase of every Zero Trust engagement.
Do you handle classified system authorization?
Yes. We have active DoD Facility Clearance and Secret-cleared engineers experienced with DoD IL2/IL4/IL5 boundaries and Intelligence Community authorization frameworks. Classified work is delivered through SeaPort NxG and other appropriate vehicles.
What makes ISO 27001 certification matter for federal clients?
ISO 27001:2013 means AGT’s own information security operations are independently audited annually against an internationally recognized standard. Federal authorizing officials gain confidence that the provider helping with their authorization actually meets a comparable bar for their own operations.
