Secure cloud and compliance

Turn security requirements into operating practice.

Stave and Shield helps organizations connect CMMC, NIST 800-171, secure cloud, policy, vulnerability management, and evidence so compliance reflects how the environment is actually operated.

The problem

Where federal cyber programs get stuck.

  • Policies describe an ideal state that is not reflected in system configuration or daily operations.
  • Cloud migration decisions move faster than governance, access control, logging, and evidence.
  • CMMC and NIST 800-171 work is reduced to templates instead of implemented safeguards.
  • Technical findings remain disconnected from business priority and accountable remediation.

What Stave and Shield delivers

Work products that survive review.

Every deliverable supports a decision, closes a material gap, or strengthens accountable execution.

01

Compliance baseline

Applicable requirements, current implementation, evidence, owners, gaps, and dependencies organized for action.

02

Secure delivery plan

Cloud, identity, data protection, logging, configuration, and vulnerability responsibilities integrated into delivery.

03

Policy and evidence alignment

Written policy, technical safeguards, operating procedures, and proof reconciled to the real environment.

04

Remediation governance

Findings prioritized by risk, mission effect, owner, commitment, evidence need, and closure criteria.

Engagement model

A disciplined path from pressure to proof.

Stave and Shield can own a focused work package, strengthen an existing team, or lead a defined readiness and delivery effort.

01

Scope

Define the environment, data, contracts, users, controls, and compliance obligations.

02

Assess

Compare requirements with configuration, operations, evidence, and accountable ownership.

03

Implement

Strengthen safeguards, policy, procedures, and proof where the risk is material.

04

Verify

Confirm that remediation works and leaves a defensible record.

Best fit for

  • Defense Industrial Base organizations preparing for CMMC
  • Teams moving controlled work into GCC High or another secure cloud
  • Programs needing policy, technical controls, and evidence brought into alignment
  • Leaders who need compliance risk translated into executable priorities
