Claroty Expands Public Sector Cybersecurity Business with FedRAMP Milestone

Claroty Expands Public Sector Cybersecurity Business with FedRAMP Milestone — Cyber-physical systems (CPS) security provider Claroty has established Claroty Public Sector LLC, an independent subsidiary dedicated to serving U.S. federal, state, and local government agencies. Alongside the organizational expansion, the company announced that Claroty xDome for Government has achieved a FedRAMP “In Process” designation at the High impact level, marking another step toward broader adoption of its cloud-native cybersecurity platform across government environments.

Claroty is strengthening its position in the U.S. public sector cybersecurity market with the launch of Claroty Public Sector LLC, an independent subsidiary responsible for all government-focused operations as the company advances its Foreign Ownership, Control, or Influence (FOCI) mitigation strategy.

The announcement comes as government agencies continue increasing investments in protecting cyber-physical systems (CPS)—the operational technologies that support military infrastructure, government facilities, transportation, healthcare systems, and other mission-critical services. The new subsidiary is intended to provide federal, state, and local agencies with dedicated cybersecurity expertise while supporting procurement and compliance requirements unique to the public sector.

As part of the expansion, Claroty xDome for Government has received a Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) “In Process” designation at the High impact level following an external audit and sponsorship by a federal agency. The platform is now listed on the FedRAMP Marketplace, positioning it for future deployment across agencies requiring cloud services that meet stringent federal security standards.

The FedRAMP High baseline is designed for cloud systems handling highly sensitive government information where confidentiality, integrity, and availability are essential. Achieving the “In Process” designation signals that Claroty has entered the formal authorization pathway, an important milestone for cloud security vendors seeking to serve federal customers.

Claroty’s latest move reflects the growing importance of securing operational technology (OT), Internet of Things (IoT) devices, building management systems, facility-related control systems, and connected medical devices within government environments. These cyber-physical assets increasingly support defense operations, public services, and critical infrastructure, making them attractive targets for cyberattacks.

According to research cited by the company, 91% of federal operational technology leaders report that their agencies have increased the prioritization of cyber-physical systems security over the past two years, underscoring the rising demand for specialized security platforms that extend beyond traditional IT protection.

The company’s cloud-native xDome for Government platform is designed to improve visibility across cyber-physical environments while helping agencies identify vulnerabilities, monitor connected assets, and strengthen operational resilience. Unlike conventional cybersecurity platforms that primarily focus on enterprise IT networks, CPS security solutions are built to protect industrial control systems, operational technology, healthcare devices, and other infrastructure that directly affects physical operations.

Claroty also announced that it recently secured an Enterprise Mission Assurance Support Service (eMASS) Authority to Operate (ATO) from the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA). The authorization enables the company to further support U.S. Department of Defense environments and reinforces its credentials within federal cybersecurity programs.

Leadership expansion accompanies the company’s public sector strategy. Claroty has appointed Lynn Norris as Regional Vice President of Federal Sales, where he will oversee federal go-to-market execution and revenue strategy. Norris brings experience spanning military service in the U.S. Air Force and leadership positions at defense contractor Lockheed Martin, along with cybersecurity and enterprise technology companies including Illumio, Orca Security, and Radiant Logic.

The organizational restructuring also positions Claroty to pursue additional federal certifications and procurement opportunities while addressing compliance requirements associated with government contracts. Establishing an independent subsidiary can simplify governance structures and strengthen customer confidence during FOCI mitigation processes, which are particularly important for organizations serving national security and defense agencies.

The broader announcement aligns with increasing government investment in critical infrastructure protection. According to Gartner, worldwide spending on information security and risk management continues to grow as organizations prioritize resilience against increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. Meanwhile, IDC projects continued expansion of cybersecurity investments driven by cloud adoption, operational technology protection, and regulatory requirements, particularly across government and critical infrastructure sectors.

The cybersecurity industry has also seen greater emphasis on securing operational technology as cyberattacks increasingly target infrastructure outside traditional enterprise networks. As agencies modernize legacy systems and expand connected devices across defense, utilities, healthcare, and transportation, protecting cyber-physical assets has become a strategic priority alongside conventional IT security.

For government agencies, Claroty’s latest announcements represent more than an organizational change. The combination of a dedicated public sector subsidiary, progress toward FedRAMP High authorization, and expanded federal leadership demonstrates a broader strategy focused on meeting evolving government cybersecurity standards while supporting mission-critical infrastructure.

As cyber threats continue targeting operational environments, platforms capable of protecting both digital networks and physical infrastructure are expected to play an increasingly important role in strengthening national resilience and safeguarding essential public services.
