Telos Corporation, a premier provider of cyber, cloud, and enterprise security solutions, has secured its first enterprise-wide deployment of Xacta.ai with a U.S. federal agency. This milestone, announced on October 13, 2025, integrates the AI-powered governance, risk, and compliance (GRC) platform across the agency's operations, utilizing intelligent workflows, real-time insights, and automated compliance mapping to streamline security processes for mission-critical environments.
The federal agency's adoption of Xacta.ai marks a significant validation of Telos's AI strategy, transitioning from pilot successes to full-scale implementation. As an existing customer, the agency will embed Xacta.ai to unify compliance efforts, drawing on machine learning to automate repetitive tasks and provide adaptive intelligence. This deployment addresses escalating regulatory demands, enabling faster risk assessments and authorizations while maintaining rigorous security standards essential for government operations.
“Our first full enterprise federal deployment of Xacta.ai marks a major inflection point for Telos,” said John B. Wood, Chairman and CEO. “It demonstrates that our AI vision is operational at mission scale – and it motivates us to move all enterprise customers onto the next generation of intelligent cyber GRC technology.”
Built on decades of compliance innovation, Xacta.ai leverages AI to analyze vulnerability data, project details, testing outcomes, and threat intelligence, uncovering hidden risks that traditional methods might miss.
In pilot testing, Xacta.ai has demonstrated transformative efficiency: slashing key compliance workflows from months to days and producing detailed implementation statements in minutes—a 93% time reduction overall. This capability equips agencies to respond nimbly to evolving threats, embedding continuous monitoring as a core practice. Aligned with federal mandates like OMB's M-25-21 encouraging AI adoption, Xacta.ai positions Telos as a forward-leaning partner in government digital transformation.
“As regulatory and cybersecurity pressures intensify, organizations need cyber GRC solutions that think as fast as they protect,” said Wood. “Xacta.ai turns compliance into actionable intelligence.”
The platform's FedRAMP High authorization ensures seamless integration into secure environments, supporting Telos's broader ecosystem of cybersecurity tools.
This rollout follows Telos's recent $2.2 million GRC contract with another federal agency in September 2025, underscoring surging demand for AI-enhanced compliance solutions. As the only platform blending rules-based logic with AI for proactive risk management, Xacta.ai not only accelerates federal processes but also sets a blueprint for commercial enterprises facing similar challenges. With Telos's focus on continuous security assurance, this deployment signals accelerated migration of customers to AI-driven GRC, fostering resilience across sectors.
Telos Corporation's Xacta.ai enterprise deployment exemplifies the maturation of AI in cyber GRC, empowering federal agencies to safeguard missions with unprecedented speed and insight, while paving the way for widespread innovation in secure, compliant operations.
