Threat modeling, compliance, and code reviews at the speed of modern defense software.
Start securing your mission systems
Defense teams work with complex regulated systems, from air-gapped infrastructure to classified data flows and autonomous platforms. But most security architectures weren’t built for this. They rely on generic checklists, struggle with custom architectures, and fail to reflect real operational risk. That’s how critical gaps slip through before deployment.
we45 works inside the realities of defense software. Our team reviews system architectures, deployment topologies, and data classifications, and flags design flaws before they show up in production. Threat models align to mission priorities, instead of just textbook patterns. Compliance frameworks like NIST, CMMC, and FedRAMP are part of how risk is assessed from the start.
Most security tools assume cloud-native environments and always-on access. They break in air-gapped networks, can’t process compartmentalized data, and miss risks tied to mission-specific workflows. Defense software needs more than generic templates.
Design reviews often get skipped or delayed until after implementation. By then, architecture is locked in, and changes are costly. When teams do threat modeling, it’s slow, manual, and disconnected from real system behavior.
CMMC, NIST 800-171, and FedRAMP. Every framework comes with demands that slow teams down. And because compliance is often handled outside the workflow, it turns into spreadsheet sprawl and fire drills at audit time.
As AI becomes part of defense platforms, new vulnerabilities appear. Model behavior under adversarial conditions, unsafe outputs, and misaligned access controls are hard to detect…and even harder to explain to auditors.
Defense systems don’t live in isolation. Each interface, with ISR feeds, C2 systems, partner networks, or contractor apps, opens new doors for risk. Most tools can’t trace how a vulnerability in one system could cascade across the stack.
Security engineers spend weeks reviewing artifacts, translating diagrams, and validating architectures with limited context. It slows delivery, delays field testing, and still misses threats hiding in the details.
Architecture reviews flag security risks across hybrid environments, air-gapped deployments, and complex comms systems long before the first field test or system handoff.
We extract threat insights from your existing documentation, design diagrams, and workflows. No need for cloud tools or exposing sensitive systems to third-party platforms.
Security assessments are mapped directly to mission-relevant compliance frameworks, giving you traceable outputs and audit-ready documentation without duplication.
We uncover vulnerabilities in LLMs, autonomous behaviors, and decision pipelines, especially where traditional static tools fail to detect dynamic threats or abuse patterns.
Teams integrate security into current workflows with clear visibility into risk exposure, actionable feedback for devs, and no last-minute review bottlenecks before deployment.
