Compliance Interoperability Platform for Hybrid Enterprise Risk
Verify Once, Satisfy Many.
The only compliance platform that deciphers the complexity of overlapping federal, commercial, and sovereign cloud frameworks into a single, continuously verified source of truth.
The Compliance Enigma
Today's compliance landscape is a cipher no existing tool was designed to decode.
The Parallel Priority Crisis
FedRAMP 20x is rewriting the rules of cloud authorization while organizations must simultaneously maintain Rev 5 baselines, CMMC readiness, and DoD Impact Level compliance. Managing multiple tracks in parallel is an operational nightmare no legacy GRC tool was built to solve.
Framework Fragmentation
FedRAMP, CMMC, NIST 800-53, DoD CC SRG, PCI DSS, ISO 27001, CJIS, GovRAMP, and sovereign cloud frameworks share 60–80% control overlap, yet organizations document each independently. The result: redundant work, inconsistent narratives, and missed deadlines.
The Documentation Era Is Ending
Static documents. Annual assessments. Manual evidence collection. The industry is moving to continuous authorization, machine-readable artifacts, and automated validation. Legacy platforms cannot make this leap. CIPHER was born in this new reality.
The Expertise Gap
Deep compliance expertise takes years to develop and is in critically short supply. Organizations need a force multiplier that captures institutional knowledge and applies it at machine speed across every framework, every control, every assessment cycle.
Meet the Bombe
The agentic AI intelligence engine at the heart of CIPHER.
Named after Alan Turing's codebreaking machine at Bletchley Park, the Bombe is CIPHER's agentic AI engine. It doesn't guess. It doesn't hallucinate. Every decision is grounded in a proprietary compliance knowledge framework that maps the precise technical requirements, quantitative thresholds, and cross-framework relationships that govern regulatory cybersecurity compliance standards. The Bombe deciphers the Enigma of raw telemetry and regulatory complexity into machine-verifiable truth.
Grounded Intelligence
No general AI knowledge. Every evaluation is anchored to precise technical definitions, quantitative thresholds, and assessment procedures curated by experienced assessors.
Cross-Framework Reasoning
One verified signal satisfies requirements across every active framework simultaneously. The Bombe understands the relationships that connect FedRAMP, CMMC, DoD SRG, PCI DSS, ISO 27001, and beyond.
Continuous Decryption
Authorization isn't a milestone. It's a state of being. The Bombe runs continuously, transforming raw cloud telemetry into articulated compliance intelligence in real time.
How CIPHER Works
From raw signals to continuous authorization in three steps.
Connect
CIPHER ingests telemetry from your cloud infrastructure (AWS, Azure, GCP, or on-premises), normalizing thousands of raw data points into a unified signal format ready for compliance evaluation.
Decipher
The Bombe evaluates every signal against the precise technical requirements of your active compliance frameworks, cross-walking results across frameworks and surfacing gaps with actionable remediation guidance.
Comply
CIPHER generates audit-ready artifacts on demand: OSCAL packages, machine-readable formats, and traditional SSP documentation, all from a single authoritative source of truth, continuously validated.
Platform Capabilities
Six core capabilities designed for the compliance landscape of tomorrow.
Build Once, Comply Everywhere
Document your controls once. CIPHER's cross-framework engine automatically maps them across every compliance framework you need, eliminating redundant work and maintaining a single source of truth.
AI-Powered Intelligence
The Bombe goes beyond keyword matching. It reasons about control intent, evaluates quantitative thresholds, and generates implementation guidance tailored to your specific environment and framework requirements.
Parallel Priority Management
Purpose-built for the dual reality of modern compliance: pursue FedRAMP 20x automation while maintaining Rev 5 baselines. Prepare for GovRAMP while sustaining CMMC readiness. All in one unified workflow.
Continuous Monitoring
Move beyond point-in-time assessments. CIPHER continuously validates your compliance posture with real-time evidence collection and automated reporting. Know where you stand at any moment.
Machine-Readable Native
Built from day one with native OSCAL support and machine-readable compliance formats. As frameworks evolve toward automated validation, CIPHER is already there. No retrofitting required.
Assessor-Grade Validation
Every evaluation mirrors the lens of an experienced 3PAO assessor. Identify weaknesses before your assessor does, with remediation guidance informed by hundreds of real-world federal assessments.
Framework Coverage
One platform. Every framework that matters. Growing continuously.
Designed and Built by Industry Experts
CIPHER wasn't built in a vacuum. It was forged in the crucible of real federal and commercial assessment experience.
3PAO DNA
Conceived by a team that has led over 70 FedRAMP assessments as 3PAO lead assessors. We know exactly what assessors look for because we have been the assessors. That perspective is embedded in every evaluation, every threshold, every output.
The Only Platform That Bridges the Divide
Other GRC tools force you to choose between automation and traditional compliance. CIPHER is the only platform designed from the ground up to handle both simultaneously, managing the transition from Rev 5 to 20x without dropping either ball.
The Path to cATO
Continuous Authorization to Operate isn't a feature. It's CIPHER's reason for being. By continuously running compliance evaluations against live telemetry, CIPHER ensures your organization meets all reporting requirements at all times, not just at audit season.
Platform Roadmap
