Why does Alexandria need this work?

  • Alexandria sits between the Pentagon and Fort Belvoir, with Marine Corps Base Quantico further south on I-95, and its business districts hold many contractors supporting programs at all three.
  • Federal services firms here often hold DFARS 252.204-7012 and need an incident response plan that meets the 72 hour reporting requirement, tested before it is needed.
  • Contractors working with sensitive programs increasingly see insider threat awareness and user activity monitoring requirements in their contracts.
  • Alexandria is at the far end of our usual drive, so we plan on site days carefully and handle routine program work remotely.
