Cyber Operations and Engineering

Monitoring the IT environment to uncover vulnerabilities and address them before cyber actors exploit them is one of the best ways to achieve optimum security. Organizations should be conversant with the different cybersecurity tools and their respective categories. Invictus cybersecurity engineers provide implementation, operation, and custom tailoring of a broad array of cybersecurity tools and technologies. Invictus has several rapid acquisition contracts (ACT – Agile Cyber Technology and OSCER – Operational Simulated Cyber Environment for Enhanced Resiliency) that enable our customers to quickly get engineering and research development support to address critical cybersecurity requirements or enhancements.

Cybersecurity Tools and Engineering

Invictus provides cybersecurity engineering services to US Government customers to manage risk and secure enterprises with more than 40,000 users across the globe. We assist in the selection and optimization of cybersecurity tools to combat current and future cybersecurity threats. With over 100 advanced security-certified professionals (CISSP, CASP, CEH, and other-industry certifications), Invictus engineers have streamlined enterprise authorization processes by over 50% while implementing and integrating more stringent security requirements aligned with the NIST Risk Management Framework (RMF). We develop and optimize cybersecurity processes and tools to maximize our client’s enterprise cybersecurity posture to counter cyber threats as they evolve.

Cross-Domain Solutions

Demands for Enterprise Cross Domain Services from Department of Defense (DoD) and Intelligence Community (IC) mission partners have seen exponential growth in requests for access and support for the cross-domain transfer of new mission data feeds. Invictus has one of the largest and most experienced teams of cross-domain engineers in the industry. Our engineers have either been involved in the development, integration or authorization of almost every cross-domain system currently in use and we are working with several customers on the evaluation, implementation and authorization of new technologies. Invictus provides programmatic, engineering, operations and maintenance, software development and lifecycle management support to globally distributed mission-critical enterprise CDS systems.

Assessments & Penetration Testing

Invictus has experience conducting a wide range of cyber security assessments. Our assessments and inspections range from comprehensive assessments of commercial Wall Street investment firms; Penetration Testing and Red Teams for commercial and Federal Government customers; Security Control Assessments (SCA) to assess risks for specific technologies across an enterprise; and specific inspections that assess an organization’s cyber security posture. Our SCAs conduct hundreds of security assessments every year in support of our Federal and DoD customers. We have reduced our customers timeline to Authority to Operate (ATO) by 50% on average. Invictus is leading an inspection program to ensure cybersecurity compliance across the Department of Defense. For non-DoD government customers, Invictus penetration testers routinely conduct offensive security testing events to identify potential paths for malicious actors enabling mitigation prior to exploitation. Invictus provides single event testing and has established permanent testing programs for customers.

Cyber Operations & Exercise Support

Invictus cyber engineers and cyber operations personnel have supported the development and integration of cyber technologies to advance Cyber Mission Force (CMF) unit’s capabilities to operate and better rehearse/exercise missions in cyberspace. Invictus engineers have assisted in the development and integration of DoD’s Persistent Cyber Training Environment (PCTE) and have supported the last several CYBER FLAG exercises. Invictus engineers have designed and integrated Cyber Protection Team (CPT) deployable mission support kits and continue to enhance the capabilities of the operational cyber teams we support. Invictus has partnered with several industry partners that offer virtual and physical cyber ranges and has conducted field testing of cyber technologies.

Supply Chain Risk Management

Invictus specializes in Cyber & Security Supply Chain Risk Management (C-SCRM). We ensure the integrity of the Information and Communications Technology (ICT) supply chain by identifying, assessing, and mitigating the risks associated with our customers’ information technology product and service supply chains. Invictus provides this support to several US Government agencies and departments. We developed the initial enterprise-level SCRM framework within a Department of Transportation customer that is now being evaluated for implementation.
