ISI Enterprises operates in the Defense Industrial Base compliance and cybersecurity space, founded in 2010 and headquartered in Herndon, Virginia. The company's core business involves helping defense contractors navigate mandatory cybersecurity and compliance requirements - primarily CMMC (Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification) and NIST SP 800-171 - alongside regulatory frameworks including DFARS, ITAR, and NISPOM. As a CMMC Level 2 Certified organization, ISI has the credentials required by the regulatory environment it operates within.
The company operates three main divisions: Managed Security Services, Managed Network Services, and a proprietary Security Control (Sec-Con) software platform. The Sec-Con platform centralizes personnel and facility data into a single system, addressing the personnel clearance and facility security requirements that defense contractors face. The managed services divisions handle outsourced cybersecurity and IT operations, while the team includes compliance analysts, security engineers, and clearance specialists built specifically to navigate the defense contracting landscape.
ISI's customer focus is on small and medium-sized defense contractors - the segment most likely to lack in-house expertise for compliance and security operations at the required maturity levels. The company positions itself around the full lifecycle of a defense contractor's compliance and security journey, moving beyond point solutions toward integrated services that span policy, technology, and personnel requirements.
