CodeLock receives DHS endorsement for its robust cybersecurity solutions in software supply chain.
CodeLock, a pioneering company in cybersecurity specializing in software supply chain security, has recently received an endorsement from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS). This significant recognition highlights CodeLock's commitment to ensuring the security and integrity of software development processes and its innovative approach to safeguarding the software supply chain.
Founded in 2021 and based in Virginia, USA, CodeLock has rapidly gained recognition for its advanced solutions in the cybersecurity domain. The company focuses on protecting every line of code with a forensic chain of custody, enhancing traceability and data integrity. This approach not only ensures the security of software but also significantly reduces the time and cost associated with meeting regulatory requirements, such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), by up to 90%.
CodeLock's platform leverages artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) to provide insights that enhance organizational efficiency and monitor software developer performance. The nonrepudiation capabilities secure code by linking the "digital DNA" of developers to their work, effectively preventing insider threats. With advanced tracking, CodeLock offers detailed visibility across the software's lifecycle, ensuring authenticity and integrity from development to deployment.
The endorsement by DHS is a testament to CodeLock's robust security features and its potential to protect critical infrastructure. DHS's endorsement is reserved for technologies that demonstrate exceptional security capabilities and can significantly contribute to national security. This recognition underscores the importance of CodeLock's solutions in the broader context of national and global cybersecurity.
With the DHS endorsement, CodeLock is well-positioned to further assist organizations in meeting stringent regulatory requirements. CodeLock's platform includes several subscription plans tailored to different needs, from the Starter Plan, which offers access to the NIST 800-218 Secure Software Development Framework Compliance Module for one user, to the Enterprise SaaS Plan, which provides customized solutions for advanced users.
The endorsement is further bolstered by expert validation from DHS. Brian Murphy, the former acting Under Secretary for the Office of Intelligence and Analysis at DHS, stated, "CodeLock appears to have the capability to stop the most sophisticated criminal malware. With respect to cyber attacks from hostile nation-states, CodeLock would also be effective.” This endorsement not only validates the effectiveness of CodeLock's solutions but also highlights their potential to protect against some of the most severe cyber threats.
As cyber threats continue to evolve, the need for robust and innovative security solutions becomes increasingly critical. CodeLock's endorsement by DHS not only validates its current capabilities but also opens up new opportunities for collaboration and growth. The company is poised to play a vital role in enhancing the security of the software supply chain, contributing to a safer digital landscape.
CodeLock's co-founders, Brian Gallagher and JT Kostman, expressed their gratitude for the endorsement, emphasizing their commitment to advancing cybersecurity. "This endorsement is a significant milestone for CodeLock. It reflects our dedication to providing cutting-edge security solutions that protect the software supply chain and support national security efforts," said Gallagher.
The DHS endorsement marks a pivotal moment for CodeLock, highlighting its innovative approach to cybersecurity and its potential impact on national security. As CodeLock continues to develop and refine its solutions, it remains at the forefront of the cybersecurity industry, dedicated to protecting the integrity and security of software development processes.
