REDWOOD CITY, Calif., Aug. 27, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Authorization provides fast track for DoD organizations to leverage Bluescape's virtual workspace.

Bluescape®, a visual workspace solution, is proud to announce that the U.S. Air Force granted the BluescapeGov SaaS solution Enterprise-wide Authority to Operate (ATO) at Impact Level 4 (IL4) for Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI). This authorization not only benefits USAF and its mission partners, but vastly simplifies the process a Department of Defense (DoD) organization must complete to grant ATO, and fast tracks their use of Bluescape to aggregate, fuse, and share information internally and with mission partners, creating a common operating picture.

Bluescape's virtual workspace accelerates mission progress by giving teams a place to synchronously gather information and analysis with military-grade security, and serves as an operational single pane of glass for radiating insight across every echelon of the command hierarchy. Hosted in the Government Community Cloud, Bluescape is the only workspace SaaS solution authorized to operate at FedRAMP Moderate+ and by the U.S. DoD at IL4 for CUI data, empowering dispersed teams to bring, share and organize data and collaborate in a virtual workspace.

"This ATO is one of the first to follow new guidance aimed at resolving risk management and cybersecurity reciprocity challenges," explained Norm Litterini, Vice President of Public Sector Channels and Partners for Bluescape.

"This ATO is one of the first to follow new guidance aimed at resolving risk management and cybersecurity reciprocity challenges," explained Norm Litterini, Vice President of Public Sector Channels and Partners for Bluescape. "Reciprocity enables DoD to reuse another internal or external organization's assessments to share information, reducing the time and investments involved with approving IT systems to operate on information networks. Failing to leverage reciprocity can lead to redundant and resource-intensive efforts."

Bluescape's ATO is available via DoD Boundary Cloud Access Point (BCAP) for Non-Secure Internet Protocol Router (NIPR) Access Point and mission partner support through the Internet Access Point (IAP).
