Attestations

To determine if software delivered to the federal government is secure, new regulations require attestations to be collected from software providers testifying that their software is secure. Fortress provides products to collect and track attestation compliance and services to reach out to software companies who have yet to comply with the attestation requirement for increased response rate.

Procurement

Fortress’s File Integrity Assurance (FIA) monitors for and ensures the security of software patches and files before they are downloaded and installed, verifying authenticity to prevent malware infiltration and maintain system integrity.

Deployment and Hardening

Fortress turns SBOMs into action: surfacing hidden risk, holding vendors accountable, and stopping bad patches before they hit critical systems.

Continuous Monitoring

To remain vigilant in upholding security and compliance standards, Fortress facilitates ongoing monitoring of software patch updates, SBOMs, vendor updates, and software vulnerabilities.

You Can’t Secure What You Can’t See

Software Bill of Materials (SBOMs) serve as crucial inventories that catalog all components of an application, including open-source libraries, proprietary code, and dependencies. Federal mandates such as Executive Order 14028 emphasize the importance of SBOMs, making it a perfect time to ensure software security.

Discover Vulnerabilities

Utilize SBOMs to systematically uncover and assess critical vulnerabilities, enabling a proactive approach to software security.

Dependency Health

SBOMs provide complete transparency and identify dependencies, including open-source and proprietary code to identify end-of-life or out-of-date components.

Critical for Risk Management

Enable quick responses to vulnerabilities or breaches, safeguarding digital infrastructure vital to national security and public services.
