Agile-Bot II has received a contract to provide secure digital identification solutions for the US Defense Information Service Agency (DISA).
Under the contract, Agile-Bot II will deliver “identity verification and issuance of strong credentials” for DISA’s information technology and cybersecurity arm, the Joint Service Provider.
Resulting capabilities will be distributed across the US Department of Defense, where they will be leveraged for accessing protected online resources such as Public Key Certificates, electronically signed documents to validate a user’s authorization.
‘Responsive, High-Quality’ Security
Once completed, the project is expected to render “responsive and high-quality” digital identification for the Office of the Secretary of Defense, Headquarters Department of the Army, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Washington Headquarters Services, and the Pentagon Force Protection Agency.
The initiative will also support Joint Service Provider in managing identity assurance systems for associated defense organizations in the National Capital Region and external customers.
Work for the contract has a base period of one year with a three-year additional option.
