SteelCloud
Cloud Compliance Automation, Simplified
Brian Hajost, Founder and COO
"Steelcloud has Helped many Customers Swiftly Migrate Applications from On-Premise to the Cloud with System-Level Controls as the Foundation for Security"
SteelCloud’s technology allows clients to document and maintain continuous compliance in the cloud. SteelCloud automates policy and security controls remediation by lowering the complexity, time, and expense associated with adhering to Security Technical Implementation Guide (STIG), Center for Information Security (CIS), and other government security policy mandates. The company offers a lightweight solution that helps clients harden security and maintain compliance with NIST 800-53 using STIG/CIS system-level controls in a short time frame. As organizations shift to cloud computing for various reasons, the company offers flexible solutions that support all use cases. SteelCloud is committed to achieving successful outcomes by leveraging its extensive industry knowledge of remediation automation in multiple infrastructures.
To quickly establish a STIG/CIS cybersecurity compliant environment, ConfigOS— SteelCloud’s patented compliance software suite— scans and remediates hundreds of system level controls in minutes.
For Windows Workstation, Windows Server, and Linux, the ConfigOS software tool incorporates both policy content and policy remediation automation. In addition, the software allows for hardening system-level controls around an application stack within minutes.
“Our solution takes less than five minutes to install, two hours to train customers, and can harden systems around applications in an hour, rather than the weeks or months it takes to harden systems manually,” says Brian Hajost, Founder and COO. Through ConfigOS, users can drastically reduce the time spent monitoring, detecting, and maintaining their enterprise’s DISA STIG/CIS security benchmarks.
SteelCloud has helped many customers swiftly migrate applications from on-premise to the cloud with system-level controls as the foundation for security. The company’s technology allows users to adjust policies easily and address waivers to customize and meet compliance mandates. As a result, SteelCloud’s software is trusted by the Department of Defense and all the top systems integrators to secure their enterprises, perform continuous diagnostics and mitigation, generate reports, monitor threats, create zero trust efficiencies, and eliminate the arduous aspects of compliance.
Our solution takes less than five minutes to install, two hours to train customers, and can harden systems around applications in an hour, rather than the weeks or months it takes to harden systems manually.
The company’s unique technical capabilities include technology that automates policy testing while supporting clients with their cloud migration. The uniqueness of SteelCloud also stems from the nine patents it has been awarded for its innovative solutions. For a company to stay innovative and inventive on a global scale year after year, it stands to reason that SteelCloud’s unique solutions and approach to security compliance are hard to emulate. SteelCloud’s ConfigOS was designed as a software product to reduce the time to harden an environment around an application by over 90%, ongoing STIG compliance costs by more than 70%, and securing systems with steel-clad assurance.
Make Hardening Easier ConfigOS automates STIGs and CIS benchmarks like no other solution-and we've got the patents to prove it

SteelCloud Announces New Remote Workforce Compliance Suite
SteelCloud designed ConfigOS MPO to address both transient and bandwidth issues that challenge legacy compliance products. With ConfigOS MPO, scans and remediations take only seconds with minimal data traffic, solving the throughput challenges for VPN and satellite-connected workstations. ConfigOS MPO's lightweight semi-autonomous agent performs its tasks without human intervention on a user-defined schedule, no matter whether the endpoint is on or off the network. When reconnecting to the network, compliance results are automatically uploaded for every activity performed when the workstation was offline. This design provides a frictionless mechanism to ensure that endpoints are always in compliance, providing a complete picture of continuous monitoring operations.
"Whether you are a government or commercial organization, we all know that COVID introduced some real challenges for managing secure configurations for an organization's remote workforce," said Brian Hajost, SteelCloud's Chief Operating Officer. "We engineered all aspects of ConfigOS MPO automation to be close to 'set it and forget it' as possible. We help clients move beyond simple continuous monitoring to achieve true, continuous compliance."
