Parallel Works, a provider of the ACTIVATE control plane for hybrid multi-cloud computing resources, announced its ACTIVATE High Security Platform (HSP) has achieved a historic milestone as the first-ever hybrid multi-cloud computing solution to receive the Authority to Operate (ATO) by the Department of Defense (DoD). Granted by the High Performance Computing Modernization Program (HPCMP), the IL-5 ATO authorization enables more agile, cloud-enabled defense computing capabilities to modernize defense infrastructure through scalable, secure and high-performance cloud solutions.

The designation opens the door for partners, integrators, DoD civilians and military end users to utilize Parallel Works ATO through two options:

  1. ACTIVATE HSP can be used as a shared service on NIPRnet through HPCMP.
  2. Organizations can leverage the ACTIVATE HSP software stack and inherit the required compliance and security boundaries to operate within the government ecosystem.

The ATO authorization provides immediate access to a secure, IL5-authorized HPC platform, thereby shortening the time to market for DoD agencies, defense contractors, national labs, system integrators and AI/ML teams.

The DoD’s demand for automated computing solutions is skyrocketing as technology advances to support AI-driven wargaming, digital and model-based systems. Parallel Works ACTIVATE HSP advances the transition with turnkey HPC integration across DoD and commercial clouds, providing advanced orchestration for real-time simulation and AI analytics.

“Achieving an ATO shouldn’t be a barrier to innovation,” said Matthew Archuleta, Vice President of Operations at Parallel Works. “Our High Security Platform delivers the fastest path to ATO for DoD users and integrators with a secure, compliant foundation, enhanced data security, unified compute resource management and built-in orchestration via infrastructure as code. The HSP platform lets mission teams focus on capability, not paperwork, and speeds deployment of AI, HPC and other emerging technologies across the defense ecosystem.”
