Allied Universal®, a prominent figure in the security and facility services industry, has introduced HELIAUS® Gov, a specialised version of its acclaimed HELIAUS workforce management system designed for federal and defence operations.
This new deployment offers the familiar capabilities of HELIAUS, including predictive analytics, digital post orders, geofenced activity tracking, and AI-driven insights. These features are all presented within a compliance-segregated environment, minimising any crossover to commercial infrastructure.
Meeting stringent compliance standards
Steve Jones, global chairman and CEO of Allied Universal, highlighted the rigorous compliance and security challenges faced by federal and defence agencies, emphasising the importance of maintaining mission pace while adhering to these demands. HELIAUS Gov caters to these needs by providing built-in compliance alongside AI-enhanced workflows and predictive analytics within the established HELIAUS framework.
HELIAUS Gov is equipped to ensure operational continuity and risk anticipation while offering transparent oversight. It includes unique features such as FIPS-validated end-to-end encryption for all data in transit and at rest, incident-response playbooks aligned with federal reporting requirements, comprehensive data sovereignty with US-based data processing and storage, and platform administration restricted to verified US persons.
Enhanced security and risk management
The system adheres to NIST 800-171 standards and has secured FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency
The system adheres to NIST 800-171 standards and has secured FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency, as verified by an independent third-party assessment organisation. This compliance facilitates faster Authority to Operate (ATO) and streamlines the management of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).
Mark Mullison, Allied Universal's chief technology officer, stated, “HELIAUS Gov delivers the capability of the HELIAUS platform — AI-powered workflows, real-time guidance, predictive risk intelligence — inside a compliance-segregated environment on AWS GovCloud with no crossover to commercial infrastructure. We didn't compromise on either capability or compliance. HELIAUS Gov delivers both.”
HELIAUS Gov will be showcased for demonstration at the ISC West conference from March 25-27 in Las Vegas, providing an opportunity for attendees to experience its features firsthand.
