Securing Missions. Empowering People.
Capabilities

Cybersecurity services aligned to mission execution.

This page is the technical source of truth for BOLTTEK’s services, tools, artifacts, and support areas. Acronyms are expanded here so technical teams and non-technical reviewers can use the same language.

01 / RMF and ATO

NIST Risk Management Framework

BOLTTEK supports the full Risk Management Framework lifecycle: prepare, categorize, select, implement, assess, authorize, and monitor.

  • Authorization artifacts: System Security Plan (SSP), Security Assessment Plan (SAP), Security Assessment Report (SAR), and supporting package inputs.
  • Evidence and validation: eMASS/Xacta-style evidence review, control validation, inheritance review, and assessment response support.
  • Remediation management: Plan of Action & Milestones (POA&M) tracking, continuous monitoring inputs, finding updates, and ATO decision readiness.
  • SCA under RMF: security control assessment activities are treated as part of the RMF/ATO lifecycle, not a separate disconnected service lane.
02 / Operations

Security Operations & Incident Support

BOLTTEK helps teams keep daily cyber operations organized, defensible, and tied back to mission risk.

  • Event support: SIEM/EDR triage, event correlation, incident intake, escalation, and stakeholder coordination.
  • Vulnerability flow: ACAS/Nessus-style scan review, vulnerability tracking, remediation coordination, retest support, and risk reporting.
  • Endpoint and network defense: support for endpoint/network troubleshooting, after-action reporting, playbook support, and operational handoffs.
03 / Architecture and cloud

Secure Architecture & Cloud Security

Provider-neutral support for enterprise, hybrid, and cloud environments where security architecture must align with mission needs and compliance expectations.

  • Cloud alignment: AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud security review, logging, monitoring, identity, and baseline hardening support.
  • Architecture review: segmentation, encryption, secure landing zones, control inheritance, data flow understanding, and secure configuration guidance.
  • Framework mapping: NIST SP 800-53, FedRAMP-style package awareness, Cloud Security Alliance control concepts, and government risk language.
04 / Identity

Identity & Access Management

BOLTTEK supports identity discipline so access aligns with mission roles, audit expectations, and least-privilege principles.

  • Access governance: least privilege, role-based access control (RBAC), attribute-based access control (ABAC), privileged access, and MFA support.
  • Lifecycle review: onboarding, offboarding, identity lifecycle checks, access recertification, and cloud IAM assessment.
  • Audit readiness: access evidence, process documentation, exception review, and policy/procedure support.
05 / People and process

Cyber Training & User Support

Security work is only sustainable when people understand the process and have clear, useful guidance.

  • Training support: role-based cyber training, RMF process education, cybersecurity awareness, and phishing readiness.
  • User support: help desk/user support coordination, secure configuration guidance, SOPs, and quick-reference guides.
  • Stakeholder communication: documentation that helps program managers, technical owners, assessors, and users understand the work.
Tools, frameworks, and artifacts

Built around the ecosystem government cyber teams use.

Tool familiarity is not a substitute for judgment, but it helps teams move faster when evidence, tickets, controls, and risk decisions need to connect.
