We began Orange Locker to make it easier for mission-driven organizations to work with the Federal Government.

Working with research institutes and small businesses, we saw a recurring pattern: organizations struggled to meet the complex requirements of CMMC, NIST 800, and FedRAMP. The typical path—taking 18-24 months and often requiring vendor lock-in—slows down important work, drives up costs, and creates unnecessary risks in how sensitive data is handled.

We also recognized that compliance isn't one-size-fits-all. Organizations need to own their environments, and the specific controls must be tailored to the data they're working with.

Orange Locker was built to solve this: we provide compliant, development-ready environments that organizations fully own, delivered in 3-6 months instead of multiple years. Our team brings deep Federal compliance experience, and we've structured our delivery model around a simple belief — you shouldn't have to choose between moving fast and staying secure.

Our team bring over 40 years of combined experience in Federal compliance, information security, and DevSecOps. We've guided organizations through over a dozen successful FedRAMP authorizations and built accredited, compliant environments for sensitive government work. We understand both the technical components and the compliance requirements — and know how to navigate both efficiently.

Today, we help organizations spend less time navigating compliance and more time delivering on their mission.
