ECS is the prime contractor on a 6-year, $528 million task order with the Department of Homeland Security Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency’s Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation Program Office.
“ECS is passionate about the CDM mission,” said ECS President John Heneghan. “Over the past five years, we’ve been providing CDM with a modern, effective cyber dashboard. Now we’re thrilled to meet the new challenges posed under Data Services, to not only support the cyber dashboard but also modernize the data integration layer.”
Under the CDM Data Services task order, ECS is tasked with designing, developing and delivering a solution that will standardize the integration of cybersecurity data coming from separate CDM platforms residing across dozens of federal civilian agencies.
The CDM program delivers cyber situational awareness data and summarizes risk exposure across the federal government, improving how incident responders find and remediate threats and vulnerabilities, the company said.
“This award is the first significant milestone in CISA’s set of next generation CDM contracts and will position the program and the agency to continue our mission of maturing federal network cybersecurity for years to come,” said CISA CDM Program Manager Matthew House.
To deliver its new data integration solution, ECS will provide CISA’s CDM Program Office with solution engineering, testing, cybersecurity, operations and maintenance, program management, data governance, and training expertise and services.
“The CDM Data Services solution for data collection, normalization, and visualization will yield an even higher quality CDM solution and better visibility into data that informs critical cyber operations,” said ECS Senior Vice President of Justice and Homeland Solutions Greg Adams.
