The platform

Atomus Aegis. Implemented by Software, Managed by People.

An endpoint agent, a hardened Microsoft Government cloud, a zero-trust boundary, and the Compliance Portal where your documentation is drafted, reviewed by Atomus, and kept current — deployed and run by Atomus across your organization.

After the demo, a scoping call sets the boundary and the deployment shape, and gives you a dated plan.

Deployment

Two Shapes. Same Platform, Same Team.

Whole Organization

Most common

Atomus runs across every user and device in the company. One environment, one set of controls, one documentation set — and no one has to remember which machine CUI is allowed on.

Enclave

A segmented environment for the subset of users who handle CUI, when scoping makes that the right call — a small CUI team inside a larger commercial business, or a parent company that stays out of scope.

Either way you get the same platform and the same team. The scoping call decides which shape you run.

Three Ways People Work Inside It

Virtual Desktop

A hardened desktop streamed from government cloud. CUI stays in the tenant, never on the local machine.

Endpoint

Aegis on the computers people already use. Controls, monitoring, and encryption applied in place — CAD, CAM, and instrument software keep running locally.

Mobile

Government-cloud mail, Teams, and files on enrolled iOS and Android, so people on the floor or on the road stay inside the boundary.

When to Choose Which

SituationVirtual DesktopEndpoint
Heavy CAD, CAM, or simulation workPoor fit — latency and GPU limits show up immediatelyRight answer — software runs where it always did
Contractors, interns, or personal machinesRight answer — nothing lands on the devicePoor fit — you’d be managing hardware you don’t own
Machines connected to shop-floor equipmentPoor fit — the equipment needs the local machineRight answer — with the machine scoped explicitly

Key Considerations

Most companies use a mix, decided per user rather than per company. VDI alone is the wrong answer for most engineering-heavy contractors.

Bandwidth and remote sites matter for VDI; a marginal connection turns a compliant setup into an unusable one.

Every device in scope carries documentation and evidence with it, so the cheapest scope is the one that only includes what actually handles CUI.

Scope

Three Shapes a Scoped Environment Takes

01

Cloud + Endpoints

CUI lives in government cloud and on managed computers. No CUI on site outside those machines. The most common shape for design and engineering firms.

02

Physical CUI + Endpoints

Drawings, prints, and marked media exist on paper as well as on screen. Physical protection, media handling, and visitor control come into scope alongside the digital controls.

03

Full Network

Machines, network gear, and on-premise servers are part of the environment. Segmentation, network monitoring, and configuration management extend to the plant itself.

Atomus Compliance Portal — confirm what's in scope

Every system that stores, processes, or transmits CUI is confirmed with you and signed before deployment.

Logging and retention
Audit records collected, retained, and reviewable as evidence
Alerting and response
Tuned alerts reviewed by Atomus, incidents declared and run with you
Documentation set
Policies, procedures, plans, and the SSP drafted against your environment for you to review and sign

Aegis, Managed for You

Versions, policy baselines, and device assignment stay current as your fleet changes — pushed by Atomus, visible to you.

Compliance Portal

Where Your Documentation Lives — Drafted to Your Scope, Reviewed by Atomus, Signed by You.

Not a template generator. Your policies, procedures, plans, and SSP narratives are built against the environment you actually run, reviewed by our team, and kept current as it changes — and you can customize them to your own workflows. This is what the demo shows.

PPP Editor

We build documentation tailored to your scope that you can customize to your company’s workflows.

Security Dashboard

Control state across users and devices, what Aegis has implemented, and the alerts Atomus has reviewed on your behalf.

Change Management & Documentation

Every environment change recorded against the documents it affects, so the set an assessor reads matches the system they assess.

SSP and Assessment Objectives

All 320 assessment objectives, each with its implementation narrative reviewed by Atomus, its status, and the documents and evidence behind it — the same view your assessor works from. Your SPRS score and submission come from the same record.
