Federal cybersecurity governance, risk, and remediation — defensibly delivered. We give agencies and primes the documented, audit-ready clarity their missions require.
Trusted on the missions that can't go down
Plenty of vendors hand you another dashboard. We deliver accountability, defensibility, and executive-level clarity — the documented evidence that holds up when an auditor, an authorizing official, or an Inspector General asks the hard question.
Every finding maps to a named owner, a control, and a decision — not a backlog nobody reads.
We bring structure to AI risk before it becomes a compliance or reputational problem — aligned to NIST AI RMF.
SSPs, risk reviews, and authorization artifacts written to survive scrutiny — not generic templates.
One accountable partner across the full governance, risk, and remediation lifecycle — from cloud and AI risk review through ATO, CMMC, and post-quantum readiness.
Continuous, defensible review of the SaaS, PaaS, and IaaS your mission depends on. We assess FedRAMP authorization packages, SSPs, and IR plans, validate control alignment, and deliver a risk rating leadership can act on — the same discipline we run across 500+ products in the legislative branch.
Bring structure, oversight, and executive clarity to AI risk before it becomes a business, compliance, or reputational problem. We detect shadow AI and data leakage, assess model and vendor exposure against the NIST AI RMF, and stand up the policy and board reporting that make responsible adoption defensible.
RMF execution that moves. We accelerate the path to Authority to Operate — SSP development, control implementation, and Step 6 continuous monitoring — aligned to NIST 800-53 Rev. 5.
A governance-first path to CMMC — without the last-minute fire drill. We validate scope, align controls to NIST 800-171, and strengthen SSP defensibility for assessment.
Executive-level security leadership without a full-time hire. Fractional CISO direction, governance design, and board-ready reporting for regulated and high-scrutiny enterprises.
Not just scanning. We classify, prioritize, and drive weaknesses to closure — then verify — with a remediation-forward mindset proven on the NIH OCIO mission.
Get ahead of the migration. Cryptographic inventory, a CBOM, and a crypto-agility roadmap toward NIST's post-quantum standards (FIPS 203/204/205).
Move with security baked in. Authorization-ready landing zones, Zero Trust architecture, and migrations engineered to keep continuous authorization intact.
As agencies adopt cloud faster than oversight can keep pace, risk hides in unmanaged services, stale authorizations, and control gaps nobody owns. We give you a clear, repeatable, defensible view — at scale.
We specialize in environments where the documentation has to be defensible and the stakes are public.
Civilian, health, and oversight environments that need cloud and AI risk review, ATO support, and remediation that holds up to IG scrutiny.
A HUBZone-certified, cleared subcontractor that owns a workstream end-to-end — vulnerability management, GRC, and cloud risk — and makes the prime look good.
GovCon, financial, and DIB suppliers under audit, board, or customer pressure to prove cybersecurity and AI governance maturity.
Every cyber program needs a partner that gives honest answers and high-quality execution — even when the answer isn't what you wanted to hear.
— The Terp Techs delivery standard
The same operator-led sequence whether you're standing up an ATO, scaling a risk review program, or governing AI adoption.
A focused review of your current posture, obligations, and stakeholder expectations — using your target frameworks as the lens.
Clear risk priorities and a phased, realistic roadmap your leadership can budget for and sign off on.
We stand up the controls, documentation, and oversight — working hand-in-hand with your team, IT, and partners.
Continuous monitoring, board-ready reporting, and a single accountable owner of your security story over time.
Founded in 2008 and based in Hyattsville, Maryland, Terp Techs is a HUBZone-certified, minority-owned small business focused on federal cybersecurity GRC and staffing. Our leadership runs a 500+ product cloud risk program in the legislative branch and holds an active DoD Top Secret/SCI clearance and the CISSP — so the rigor in our deliverables comes from the work, not a template.
Tell us what's in front of you — an ATO on the clock, a cloud portfolio with no owner, AI adoption outrunning governance — and we'll bring the structure.
