Forecast text

The DEA seeks to modernize and streamline its Authority to Test (ATT), Pilot (ATP), Use (ATU) Operate (ATO), and continuous ATO processes in order to reduce administrative burden, accelerate secure deployment of mission systems, and ensure ongoing compliance with all statutory, regulatory, and policy requirements. Current manual workflows are resource-intensive, can delay mission outcomes, and increase risk exposure. The DEA is seeking information for a commercial-off-the-shelf (COTS)turn-key solution, with minimal customization, that enables automation, integrates with enterprise cybersecurity and other information technology (IT) tools (e.g., Qualys, Dynatrace), and provides visibility and auditability in alignment with federal cybersecurity mandates.
