AI-Powered Workforce Management Platform Delivers NIST 800-171 Compliance and 3PAO-Validated FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency on AWS GovCloud

IRVINE, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 25, 2026 / Allied Universal^®, the world's leading security and facility services company, today announced HELIAUS^® Gov, the government-ready deployment of its award-winning HELIAUS workforce management system. Purpose-built for federal and defense operations, HELIAUS Gov delivers the same trusted HELIAUS capabilities - predictive analytics, digital post orders, geofenced activity tracking and AI-powered insights - in a compliance-segregated environment with no crossover to commercial infrastructure.

"Federal and defense agencies face some of the most demanding compliance and security requirements in the world-and they have to meet them without slowing down the mission. HELIAUS Gov was built for that reality-delivering out-of-the-box compliance alongside AI-powered workflows and predictive analytics within the proven HELIAUS framework," said Steve Jones, global chairman and CEO of Allied Universal.

The trusted HELIAUS solution ensures continuity of operations, helps security officials anticipate risks and provides transparent oversight. Unique features of HELIAUS Gov include:

• FIPS-validated end-to-end encryption across all data in transit and at rest

• Incident-response playbooks aligned to federal reporting requirements, enabling structured triage, containment and escalation

• Full data sovereignty-all data processed and stored exclusively within U.S. borders

• U.S. persons-only administration, restricting platform administration to U.S. persons with verified background checks

HELIAUS Gov is compliant with NIST 800-171 and has achieved FedRAMP Moderate Equivalency as validated by an independent third-party assessment organization (3PAO), enabling accelerated Authority to Operate (ATO) and simplified handling of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

"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," said Mark Mullison, Allied Universal chief technology officer. "We didn't compromise on either capability or compliance. HELIAUS Gov delivers both."

HELIAUS Gov will be available for demonstration at the ISC West conference March 25-27 in Las Vegas. Stop by Allied Universal Booth #27099 or visit https://www.aus.com/security-resources/fact-sheet/heliaus-gov to learn more.
