Frequently Asked Question

We are not currently on the DoD Approved Products List (APL) certification because our software is not considered a communication tool, resulting in a decline to test our software by the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA). DISA suggests we pursue commercial-level testing instead. However, these tests cost $150,000 to $300,000, beyond our budget as a veteran-owned small business. We self-testing it via DISA STIG/SCAP software the results show it will not impact the STIG score, which means your contract should be safe. Our customers handle testing and certification at an individual level. Therefore, we suggest our customer set up their test environment to test our software capability before purchasing the license for production. This means you will need to allocate time to test the software and obtain approval from your Facility Security Officer (FSO), Information Security Officer (ISO), or Chief Security Officer (CSO) before deploying it to production.

All our current customers, including federal governments, federal agencies, state governments, national laboratories, university research labs, and defense contractors, are certified by their own FSO/ISO/CSO for their airgap production environment.
