The acquisition greatly expands MCP's portfolio of managed cybersecurity services, strengthens its talent and capabilities, and increases its capacity to secure mission-critical environments and provide operational resiliency.

Secure Halo supports mission-critical federal agencies, including the Department of Defense (DOD), to reduce cybersecurity vulnerabilities across the enterprise, including their networks and supply chains.

Founded in 2006, Secure Halo has received a DHS SAFETY Act designation, as its cybersecurity assessments exceed the highest quality standards established by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Its highly experienced analysts have extensive knowledge regarding the underlying cause of cybersecurity risks and the implementation of mitigation strategies. The firm is trained in the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC), a new unified cybersecurity standard for DOD contractors
