Capabilities Cloud & application modernization

Capability · Cloud & Application Modernization

Modern cloud delivery, with the ATO that actually ships.

FedRAMP-aligned cloud and application modernization with SBOM-ready DevSecOps pipelines and continuous Authority-to-Operate, so software ships at the pace the mission needs.

What We Deliver

Specific outcomes, not a tools list.

We refactor where it pays back, replatform where it speeds delivery, and retire what isn’t earning its operating cost.

Modernization Roadmap

  • 6Rs portfolio assessment across the application estate
  • Refactor, replatform, and retire decisions made per system, tied to operating cost

Cloud Architecture

  • Designed for portability across AWS, Azure, GCP, and hybrid
  • FedRAMP and DoD IL aligned authorization boundaries

DevSecOps Pipelines

  • NIST SSDF-aligned build and release pipelines
  • SBOMs and SAST/DAST automated at every merge

Continuous ATO (cATO)

  • OSCAL-based control documentation generated as evidence
  • Policy-as-code gates enforce compliance before deployment

Containers and Kubernetes

  • EKS, AKS, and GKE with hardened baselines
  • Workload portability without deep vendor lock-in

Infrastructure-as-Code

  • Terraform, Bicep, and Pulumi delivery
  • Repeatable, version-controlled environment provisioning

Cloud · How It Works

The accredited pipeline, and where it runs.

The accredited DevSecOps pipeline in full: SSDF-aligned build and release stages emit OSCAL evidence into a named authorization boundary, ending in an IL4/IL5 enclave.

Why GHz Networks

Engineering shipped under federal ATO regimes.

01

Assessor-ready architecture from day one.

The engineers shipping our work have navigated production federal ATOs. We tailor and implement NIST SP 800-53 Rev. 5 controls to satisfy assessors without crippling system performance, preventing late-stage architectural delays.

02

Engineered to minimize 3PAO friction.

CMMI Level 3 maturity through our Mentor-Protégé partner Venesco means SBOMs, attestations, and OSCAL artifacts are built to standard from day one, drastically reducing 3PAO findings and eliminating costly late-stage architectural rework.

03

Portability is built in, not bolted on.

Architectures designed with containerized workloads and infrastructure-as-code, so the agency maximizes portability across AWS, Azure, and GCP without deep vendor lock-in.

Procurement-ready via 8(a) sole-source or HUBZone set-aside, with prime-level delivery through our Venesco Mentor-Protégé JV.
