Evolver, a recognized technology leader in digital transformation, cybersecurity services, enterprise IT, eDiscovery, and electronic security systems, has officially launched the Evolver Innovation Center (EIC) a new interdisciplinary initiative designed to help U.S. Federal agencies responsibly adopt advanced commercial technologies within Evolver’s trusted partnership model.
With this launch, Evolver strengthens its commitment to bridging the long-standing gap between emerging innovation and real-world government operations. The Evolver Innovation Center operates as a collaborative environment where mission owners, engineers, and cybersecurity specialists work side by side to transform next-generation technologies into deployable, mission-ready solutions. Rather than focusing on theory, the Center emphasizes execution ensuring that innovation translates into secure, compliant, and scalable outcomes.
At its core, the EIC concentrates on accelerating adoption across high-impact areas such as artificial intelligence, advanced data analytics, cybersecurity supply chain risk management, quantum computing, and post-quantum cryptography. As a result, federal organizations gain access to practical solutions that improve performance-driven mission outcomes while also integrating seamlessly with existing infrastructure, professional services, and regulatory frameworks. Moreover, although the Center is designed to support government missions, each solution also carries commercial relevance, enabling Evolver to extend enterprise-grade innovations to broader markets.

Leadership plays a central role in the EIC’s mission. The Center is led by Gregg Garrett, COO of Evolver, and managed by Rahul Johri, Vice President of Digital Transformation and the Evolver Innovation Center. Together, they bring decades of experience translating commercial technologies into mission-critical capabilities. Importantly, Evolver built the EIC around a talent-first strategy. The company developed a specialized methodology to identify, recruit, and organize experts capable of aligning cutting-edge technologies with federal operational needs. Consequently, every solution produced by the Center is designed to be not only innovative, but also practical, secure, and deployment-ready.
“U.S. Federal government agencies are under constant pressure to both reduce costs and modernize outdated legacy information systems, while still meeting stringent technical performance, cybersecurity, compliance, and mission requirements,” Garrett said. “The Evolver Innovation Center was created to bridge that gap, bringing advanced technologies like AI, advanced data analytics, and enterprise quantum security into a practical, execution-focused environment where agencies can adopt new capabilities with confidence.”
Initially, the EIC will prioritize cybersecurity-integrated solutions. However, Evolver plans to expand the Center’s scope across every major technology capability within its professional services portfolio. The newly introduced Evolver Cybersecurity Suite of Integrated Technology Solutions addresses some of the most pressing challenges facing federal cyber teams today including quantum-era threats, supply chain risk, authorization delays, SOC fatigue, and vulnerability overload.

The suite includes SHIELD, a NIST PQC-compliant, FIPS-approved encryption overlay that enables true crypto agility; ELEVATE, an AI-powered compliance platform that modernizes the ATO process; CLEAR, an automated cyber risk supplier assessment solution; SPECTRA, a self-learning threat detection platform designed to reduce alert fatigue; and GUARDIAN, a unified vulnerability management solution that adds mission context and streamlines remediation.
“The Evolver Innovation Center is a keystone of our strategic growth plan for helping address our customers’ most pressing challenges,” said Mike Santelli, CEO of CSS, Evolver’s parent organization. “U.S. Federal government agencies are being asked to understand and integrate powerful new commercial AI and advanced data analytics technologies faster than ever before. The Innovation Center gives our customers a practical environment to evaluate, implement, and operationalize these technologies with confidence, backed by Evolver’s deep expertise and disciplined execution.”
Through the Evolver Innovation Center, the company positions itself at the intersection of innovation and mission delivery helping federal agencies move faster, modernize securely, and confidently adopt the technologies shaping the future of government operations.
