interos.ai Achieves FedRAMP High Authorization, Bringing Predictive Supply Chain Risk Intelligence to Federal Agencies

Federal agencies and defense industrial base partners have long faced a frustrating gap. The tools built to secure critical supply chains often couldn’t operate inside federal environments themselves. Today, that gap closes for interos.ai federal customers.

We’re proud to announce that interos.ai has achieved Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) High Authorization, achieved in partnership with Knox Systems, the largest and longest-running federal managed cloud. This milestone clears interos.ai to operate inside federal environments, giving agencies and defense industrial base partners continuous, predictive risk intelligence they can act on before risk reaches the critical path.

Why This Matters

Supply chain risk doesn’t wait for the next audit cycle. Yet for years, many federal teams have had to rely on point-in-time surveys and manual assessments to understand supplier exposure, which is a process that’s slow, incomplete, and often outdated by the time it’s finished.

With FedRAMP High Authorization, interos.ai replaces that model with always-on, automated visibility. Agencies can now monitor supplier risk continuously across more than 250 million businesses and 11 billion buyer-supplier relationships, extending visibility well beyond Tier-1 vendors into the sub-tiers where downstream and adversarial risk typically hides.

Mission-Ready Capabilities

This authorization translates directly into mission-critical capabilities:

• Quantified supplier risk scoring.
  iScore® lets agencies quantify and compare supplier risk in real time, surfacing hidden vulnerabilities before they affect a program.
• Full defense industrial base visibility.
  Continuously updated mapping across Tier-1 and sub-tier suppliers means adversarial and downstream exposure has nowhere to hide.
• Restricted-party and adversary exclusion at scale.
  Automated detection of restricted and prohibited entities across every supplier tier directly supports Federal Acquisition Security Council (FASC) compliance and mission assurance.
• Faster, more rigorous supplier down-select.
  Detailed risk profiles let program managers evaluate and down-select suppliers without waiting on slow, incomplete surveys.

All of this runs across six risk categories in a single, continuously updated view: financial, cyber, geopolitical, restrictions, catastrophic, and ESG.

From Compliance Checkbox to Mission Assurance

“Federal agencies and the defense industrial base can’t afford to find out about supplier risk after it’s already threatened a program,” said Yardley Pohl, Chief Product & Technology Officer of interos.ai. “With interos.ai, we’re supporting federal agencies with the kind of continuous, predictive intelligence that turns supply chain risk management from a compliance checkbox into a mission assurance capability, giving program managers the visibility they need before risk reaches the critical path.”

A Faster Path to Federal Readiness

Knox Systems’ managed cloud infrastructure was essential in compressing the timeline and cost that often stall vendors before they reach federal customers. Through our partnership, we were able to deliver FedRAMP authorization in a fraction of the time it typically takes.

“As federal agencies continue to increase the use of commercial technologies, they must be able to trust their supply chains and, until recently, few of the tools built to secure them could operate inside federal environments,” said Irina Denisenko, CEO of Knox Systems. “With its FedRAMP High Authorization, interos.ai is bringing its predictive analytics platform for supply chain risk to the agencies and defense industrial base partners to ensure that national security supply chains are resilient.”
