Partnership Aims to Bring Quantum-Ready, Cryptographic Execution-Control Against AI and Cyber Threats to Federal and Defense Agencies
WASHINGTON, Sept. 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Darkforce™, the U.S. federal subsidiary of Darkstrike®, today announced it is working with Knox Systems (Knox), the largest, longest-running federal managed cloud, to achieve Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) High Authorization. The rigorous and exclusive FedRAMP program standardizes security assessment and authorization for cloud service offerings, ultimately accelerating the adoption of government-grade cloud solutions by U.S. federal agencies.
AI is reshaping the security boundary for agentic AI and cybersecurity. It has accelerated government operations while giving adversaries the ability to conduct cyberattacks at machine speed. Darkforce, a cyber and AI security platform, addresses these challenges by cryptographically controlling AI and system execution, including blocking ransomware and rendering exfiltrated data useless. This paradigm shift in cyber and AI security will help U.S. and allied government customers safely operate AI-driven agents and autonomy, LLMs, and critical systems within authorized boundaries.
“AI is accelerating the speed of AI misuse and cyberattacks, exacerbating the struggles that have plagued AI guardrails and detect-and-respond security tools,” said David Granzotti, Founder and CEO of Darkforce. “At Darkforce, we’re helping our customers assert control before an unauthorized decision becomes an action. The team at Knox understands the urgency to get these capabilities into federal environments and is working alongside our team to achieve FedRAMP High Authorization quickly.”
Knox is eliminating the FedRAMP Authorization bottleneck, significantly reducing compliance timelines and costs for Darkforce – enabling agencies to adopt its platform under the highest federal security standards sooner.
“Federal agencies are facing threats that move at machine speed, and they can’t afford to wait for damage to happen before they respond,” said Irina Denisenko, CEO of Knox Systems. “We’re working closely with Darkforce to help it reach FedRAMP High Authorization, so agencies can put its execution-control approach to work stopping unauthorized AI and cyber actions before they ever execute.”
