Welcome to the world of
Managing Beyond Objectives
CSIOS Corporation announced today a new project in support of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Enterprise Security Operation Center (ESOC) Program. DHS currently operates multiple Security Operation Centers (SOCs), including the ESOC, that oversees and collects threat intelligence from the other component SOCs located in the National Capital Region and in other locations within the continental United States. DHS SOCs are responsible for ensuring that potential cyber security incidents are correctly identified, analyzed, defended, investigated, and reported.
Under this project, CSIOS will work collaboratively and cooperatively with multiple DHS SOCs and their corresponding Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to assist them in operationalizing the newly adopted Evaluator Scoring Metrics (ESM), baselining the current state of readiness, providing actionable recommendations to mature cybersecurity operations, and prepositioning DHS SOCs for a successful ESM 9.2 inspection and cyber center of excellence classification. “The ESM outlines metrics built from required cybersecurity functions and requirements defined by Executive, National, and Federal documents governing Defensive Cyberspace Operations; it provides both Department of Defense (DoD) Cybersecurity Service Providers and DHS SOCs with a tool to measure current provisioned cybersecurity services and conduct self–assessments for continuous improvement,” said Clinton Hackney, Vice President of Cyberspace Operations of CSIOS Corporation.
Mr. Hackney added, "Since the enactment of ESM v9.2, which introduces a more comprehensive maturity model and metrics designed to enhance the provision of cybersecurity services, many DHS SOCs have wrestled to translate some requirements that may appear tailored for the DoD. CSIOS is working together with DHS SMEs to take proactive measures to facilitate the transition of ESM v9.2 and more effectively and efficiently provision and sustain cybersecurity services to DHS Components."
Mr. Cesar Pie, President and CEO of CSIOS Corporation, also stated, “We are excited to support the DHS ESOC mission. Before joining CSIOS, Clint served as the Chief, DODIN Cybersecurity Service Provider (CSSP) Branch at the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) and Program Manager for the DOD General Service CSSP Program for the DISA. He is extremely well versed with the ESM; he is the perfect person to help translate these requirements into all DHS SOCs.”

CSIOS Corporation announced today it was awarded the Cyber Defense Global Award® forBest Cybersecurity Service Provider of the Year 2019.
Annually sponsored by Cyber Defense Magazine®, the award seeks to honor leading cyber defense innovators around the world. With thousands of cyber defense companies worldwide boasting their best executives, teams, products and services, the sought after Cyber Defense Global Awards® is recognized as one of the most prestigious international awards in the cybersecurity industry.
Winners of the coveted award, which is now in its seventh year, will be recognized at the Digital Transformation Expo Europe in London on October 9–10, 2019.
“At CSIOS, we have taken unique steps to continuously improve our award winning cyber services. First, we baked–in our cyberspace operations and cybersecurity services with applicable U.S. Executive, National, and Federal requirements, as well as specific risk management strategies and best practices such as Risk management Framework (RMF) and NIST Cybersecurity Framework. Second, we matured our services by overlaying handpicked models, standards, and methods such as Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI), International Organization for Standardization (ISO), Information Technology Infrastructure Library (ITIL), Agile, and DevSecOps. Finally, we applied our own proven signature for operationalization (i.e., know—what—how—where—why) to fuse our cyber services with proven cybersecurity principles such as defense–in–depth, layered defenses, mission relevant cyber terrain prioritization, attack surface target reduction, domain separation, process isolation, abstraction, resource encapsulation, least privilege, data hiding, modularity, simplicity, adaptation, and operational resiliency. The end result: regulatory—compliant, mission—ready, and made–to–measure matured and customized cyber solutions that have not only raised the bar; they have unlocked a never seen before service delivery—level that is rapidly changing the expectations of the U.S. Government and defining an unmatched blueprint for provisioning next generation cyber services.” said Cesar Pie, President and CEO of CSIOS Corporation.
Mr. Pie added, “Judged independently by a worldwide panel of cybersecurity experts, the award seeks to recognize the next generation cyber defense trends and trendsetters.
