Small business Punch Cyber has been awarded a 1-year, $32M contract by the Department of the Interior Chief Information Officer to provide Advanced Security Operations Center (ASOC) Support. This contract was awarded as a CSD Cybersecurity BPA. Take Bytes: PUNCH is a cyber-consulting firm that provides advanced analytics and strategic support to government and commercial clients. Their primary focus is in improving an organization’s awareness of and ability to manage a growing cyber threat environment. They focus on bolstering cyber preparedness by improving an organization’s analysts and the tools at their disposal. Brent Wrisley founded PUNCH out of a desire to help organizations tackle cyber security more efficiently. He was frustrated by industry approaches designed to introduce complexity and costly tools, while classic defense-in-depth techniques were subordinated. As Chief Executive Officer, Brent built a company that preaches innovative approaches to network defense, but always with an eye toward demystifying and simplifying. He formed this vision from decades spent building, supporting and leading operational cyber organizations. RFP ID: 140D0422Q0092 Award IDV: 140D0423F0665 Ref IDV: 140D0423A0041
