Government Services
Built for federal, state, and local missions — we don’t just prepare you for audits; we design secure architectures, defend operations, disrupt attacker paths, and build resilience.
We simplify compliance readiness for agencies and contractors — from NIST 800-171 to CMMC and beyond. But we don’t stop once you pass the audit. ShadowGrid helps you stay secure afterward, strengthening your environment against real-world threats while maintaining long-term compliance and resilience.

Lessons from the Field
- County Agency — What happened: Missing MFA and inconsistent access reviews left Controlled Unclassified Information exposed. If ignored: Loss of contract eligibility and potential reporting obligations under DFARS 252.204-7012.
- Prime Contractor — What happened: System logs were collected but not retained or correlated with security events. If ignored: Failure to demonstrate continuous monitoring, leading to a failed audit and possible CMMC suspension.
- Municipality — What happened: Backup media failed restore validation, revealing incomplete disaster recovery planning. If ignored: Ransomware could have caused permanent data loss and multi-day disruption of essential city services.
- Justice Partner — What happened: Physical access logs and visitor records were incomplete for CJIS-regulated facilities. If ignored: Non-compliance citation and loss of federal data-sharing authorization.
- Public Health Office — What happened: Outdated encryption left protected health records vulnerable. If ignored: HIPAA violations and civil fines reaching up to $50,000 per record set compromised.
Real issues — real impacts. Strengthening compliance and resilience before incidents happen preserves mission continuity and funding integrity.
