Founded in 2006, the Silver Spring based firm delivers risk-based cybersecurity solutions to federal agencies, national security stakeholders, public sector entities, and commercial enterprises across the United States.
For nearly two decades, Secure Halo has helped organizations safeguard sensitive information and maintain operational continuity by aligning their cybersecurity programs with established and emerging frameworks such as the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0, NIST Special Publications including 800-171 and 800-53 Revision 5, the NIST Risk Management Framework, the NIST AI Risk Management Framework, ISO/IEC 27001, CMMC 2.0, and the Center for Internet Security Controls and Implementation Groups.

“Cybersecurity is no longer confined to the IT department, it is an organizational priority that requires continuous attention and collaboration,” said Matt Yates from Secure Halo. “Our goal is to serve as trusted advisors to every organization we support, helping them identify their most critical risks, reduce exposure, and build resilience that enables them to operate confidently in an evolving threat environment.”

Leveraging leading frameworks, including the NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0, ISO/IEC 27001, SOC 2, and related NIST Special Publications the firm conducts comprehensive, risk-based assessments of security controls, governance practices, and operational resilience. The methodology integrates these areas into a unified risk narrative that equips leaders with clear, actionable insights and enables them to make informed decisions aligned with mission objectives and operational priorities.
“Our clients count on us to bring a balanced perspective that combines technical precision with business understanding,” Yates added. “We are committed to being transparent partners who help strengthen resilience while supporting compliance and operational objectives.”
