How we work:
Compliance with collaboration.
Our founder recently quipped: “CMMC is not a point solution, it’s a lifestyle.”
We’re here to help you acclimate to your new compliance routine as your constant coach and partner.
Whether your IT org is well-versed with frameworks for NIST, ITAR, SOX, GDPR and more, or you’re now aiming squarely at compliance as final CMMC rules bite with the new federal fiscal year, the Altus team is ready to fit wherever you need.
When it comes to your workers – both onsite and remote – and their daily technology stack, Altus experts collaborate with your team on key compliance deliverables.
Here are a few examples:
Software Distribution and Device Management
Deploying and maintaining a wide range of software applications and licenses – along with versioning, patching, and upgrades – across multiple worksites requires significant administrative investments for most IT teams.
When users’ many devices (laptops, desktops, tablets, phones, printers and more) are layered too, the sheer volume and complexity of inventory and software management becomes immense, especially during staff onboarding and transitions.
By partnering with Altus specialists for software and devices, IT directors free up significant cycles to focus on their compliance readiness and remediation initiatives.

GCC Optimizations and Policies
Though GCC High is the only office suite in the FEDRAMP marketplace, simply purchasing the solution it not nearly enough to achieve compliance.
To meet NIST and ITAR mandates with the GCC suite, IT departments must configure and maintain over 130 unique settings and controls. Your GCC policies must then be drafted for both practical staff guidance and as readiness support documentation for assessments.
When you rely upon Altus to optimize and manage your GCC deployment, our enterprise policies, controls, and paperwork attach and infuse with your business practices, greatly speeding compliance and saving valuable time and worry for your IT team.

NIST Policy Documentation and Audit Artifacts
Whether desirable for cybersecurity readiness and risk management – or mandated for CMMC preparation and accreditation – all government contractors must document their IT policies and practices, as well as regular measures of their users’ understanding and adoption.
Organizations with particularly busy IT departments often find that collaborating with Altus delivers high impact, as the construction and writing of their IT controls, staff guidance, and training paperwork come along for the ride, a significant value-add.
Altus policies, ticketing, and documentation are included for every IT program and task we manage for you. Our Learning Management System plugs right into your cybersecurity training initiatives providing a real-time view of your users’ persistence and performance.

Our flexible approach turns the age-old question – “Build or Buy?” – on its head.
Today, as countless GovCons scramble for RPOs to create their CMMC blueprints,
when you partner with Altus to manage your IT tasks, you get structural compliance too.
With Altus (to stretch the analogy) you’re effectively buying the building
– from the foundations of IT policy to the heights of day-to-day delivery.
