Research & development

Advanced systems, presented at their actual maturity.

The SIGMA family and related platforms pursue practical mission value through evidence discipline, local data control, structured assessment, and traceable decision support.

Development-stage

SIGMA GHOST

Operational problem

Screen-based evidence can be difficult to preserve, document, verify for integrity, and transfer into a defensible chain of custody—especially when cloud use is restricted or undesirable.

Intended capability

A local/offline evidence system intended to support screen-based capture, preservation, documentation, integrity verification, and chain-of-custody records while keeping evidence under customer control.

Intended users & environments

Intended for investigators, security teams, analysts, assessment personnel, and controlled environments that prioritize local operation, traceability, and freedom from vendor-hosted evidence.

Current maturity

Under internal development as a customer-controlled, offline-first system direction with no recurring SaaS requirement for core operation.

Methodology Available / Platform Development

SAFE

Operational problem

Organizations often collect observations without a consistent method for connecting evidence, risk scoring, corrective actions, and management decisions.

Intended capability

A structured assessment and evidence methodology intended to help teams conduct repeatable reviews, document findings, prioritize corrective actions, and communicate defensible results.

Intended users & environments

Intended for facility, property, security, operations, and advisory environments that need practical assessment structure supported by workbooks and documentation tools.

Current maturity

The assessment methodology and selected supporting resources are available now. The broader guided software platform, portfolio reporting, licensing, and automation capabilities remain under development.

03
Concept / Methodology Development

VET

Operational problem

Supplier and third-party decisions are often made with incomplete documentation, unclear dependencies, and no consistent way to prioritize corrective action.

Intended capability

VET is a vendor and third-party risk assessment platform intended to help government-adjacent and commercial organizations evaluate supplier and third-party exposure, documentation gaps, operational dependencies, and corrective-action priorities through a structured, evidence-based methodology.

Intended users & environments

Intended for government-adjacent businesses, regulated commercial organizations, procurement teams, security leaders, and operations personnel evaluating vendor or supply-chain risk.

Current maturity

The assessment methodology, evidence model, and platform direction are in concept and methodology development.

Research / Future Architecture

SIGMA BLACK

Operational problem

Controlled environments need to combine evidence, assessment, analysis, scoring, and reporting without losing traceability or local control of mission data.

Intended capability

SIGMA BLACK is an advanced offline intelligence, assessment, and decision-support architecture intended to integrate structured evidence, analysis, scoring, and mission reporting for controlled environments where traceability and local data control matter.

Intended users & environments

Intended for controlled government-adjacent, security, intelligence-analysis, assessment, and mission-support environments where offline operation and inspectable reasoning are priorities.

Current maturity

A research and future architecture under internal development, with capabilities defined for continued technical evaluation, integration planning, and partnership discussion.
