Lightweight Device Security Agent, Interoperability, and OT/IT Integration for OT, IoT, and Edge Environments Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) Program

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is seeking a commercially available, lightweight security agent capable of providing device-level threat detection and alerting across Operational Technology (OT), Internet of Things (IoT), and edge environments. The solution should be compatible with broader enterprise IT systems and address evolving cyber threats in operational environments. The contract will be awarded through the Commercial Solutions Opening (CSO) Program, which aims to rapidly procure innovative commercial items. Key aspects of the project include: • Device-level threat detection in OT/IoT environments • Lightweight agent architecture with minimal resource footprint • Integration with existing security operations • Scalability and manageability • Compliance with DHS requirements • Readiness for rapid deployment The project duration is expected to be 2 years, with a base period of 1 year and an optional 1-year extension. The work will be performed at designated government facilities within the National Capital Region (NCR).
