Koniag Cyber

What Koniag Cyber does

Koniag Cyber is a U.S.-based cybersecurity services firm operating across four offices (Anchorage, Minneapolis, Washington DC as regional HQ, and Atlanta) and serving customers in five highly regulated verticals: National Security & Defense, Healthcare & Life Sciences, Banking/Finance/Insurance, Energy/Utilities/Manufacturing/Industrial Systems, and State/Local/Federal Government. The firm was established by Koniag Capital in August 2025 as a dedicated cybersecurity division extending the federal-grade capabilities of Koniag Government Services (KGS) into commercial markets. Headcount sits in the 51–100 employee band; the legal entity is Koniag Cyber Services, LLC, domiciled in Alaska as part of the Koniag family of companies (Koniag is one of twelve Alaska Native regional corporations under ANCSA).

The product portfolio is organized around four interconnected service pillars: Assessment (gap analysis, risk identification, threat modeling, compliance audits, penetration testing), Prevention (Zero Trust architecture, identity and access management, OT hardening, cloud security posture), Detection (24/7 SOC, MDR, managed endpoint detection, SIEM optimization, threat hunting), and Response & Recovery (incident response, DFIR, disaster recovery, ransomware negotiation). Specialized offerings include CMMC 2.0 compliance services, FedRAMP readiness, OT/ICS security, the Koniag Cybersecurity Framework (Trust, Resilience, Integrity, Accountability, Innovation), CAMO managed CMMC operations, and the OT Resilience Path for high-consequence infrastructure. Through the March 2026 acquisition of SoundWay Consulting's CMMC business line, Koniag Cyber holds Cyber AB Authorized C3PAO status enabling formal CMMC Level 2 assessments — a credential held by fewer than 100 organizations nationally.

Revenue is generated through a mix of professional services engagements (assessments, readiness consulting, remediation, incident response) and recurring managed services (24/7 MDR, MEDR via CrowdStrike/Microsoft Defender, SIEM tuning). Distribution is exclusively direct enterprise sales — no self-service, marketplace, or channel-partner model — with quote-based, custom-scoped pricing. The go-to-market leverages Koniag Government Services' federal relationships and Alaska Native Corporation contracting position. Select disclosed customers include a major U.S. government agency (case study with 212% MTTC reduction and FISMA score improvement from 1.5 to 4) and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. No revenue figure, customer count, or external funding round has been disclosed.
