Herndon, VA — (January 3, 2017) DLT Solutions (DLT) , an award-winning public sector technology company, and Evident.io , a leading provider of cloud infrastructure security and compliance automation, announced a partnership focused on making it easier for government agencies to secure their cloud environments via the Evident Security Platform.

The Evident Security Platform (ESPâ) provides the ability to assess risks within an Amazon Web Services (AWS) environment and continuously monitors cloud infrastructure to automatically identify and assess security misconfigurations, thus making remediating the issues easy. ESP gathers AWS API metadata from an agency’s environment via Amazon API’s. This data is then input into the ESP risk analysis engine which generates a detailed assessment of the security risks, misconfigurations and vulnerabilities it detects.

“As our AWS federal, state and local government, and higher education customers move both basic and more critical workloads to the cloud, they require security, compliance and automation for their environments,” said Gary Danoff, senior vice president of cloud solutions at DLT. “Through our partnership with Evident.io we help our clients fulfill their portion of the AWS shared responsibility security model.”

The Evident Security Platform (ESP) also provides:

Continuous Security and Compliance Reporting: Delivers complete security and compliance monitoring for an entire AWS environment – all services, all regions, and all accounts -- and delivers a real-time compliance assessment with simple, one-button compliance reports.
