Managing and analyzing security data is an overwhelming task - particularly for federal agencies where budgets are tight and cyber talent is in short supply. To help ease the burden, SentinelOne, a global leader in autonomous cybersecurity, is making Singularity™ DataLake, the industry’s most performant security data solution, and only FedRAMP-Authorized offering that unifies visibility, detection, and response across the entire security infrastructure, available through its FedRAMP Authorized platform. Federal Agencies can now easily access the one-of-a-kind cloud-native solution to gain a comprehensive view of their security data and quickly uncover and respond to threats in real-time.
“The amount of data that federal agencies are required to collect, store, correlate, and analyze to defend against increasingly sophisticated and malicious attacks is massive and rapidly growing,” said Dale McCloskey, Federal Sales Vice President, SentinelOne. “The Singularity DataLake provides powerful cross-platform security analytics and intelligence they can use to gain the visibility needed to do it.”
As the industry’s first and only unified, cloud delivered solution for OMB M-21-31 compliance, the SentinelOne Singularity DataLake combines SentinelOne and third-party security data visibility into a single console. Using the solution, federal cyber analysts can:
Seamlessly ingest any data type, structured or unstructured, and fuse it with endpoint, cloud workload and user data to provide comprehensive visibility in a single, unified interface.
Efficiently search, query and leverage AI-powered analytics to speed data-driven decisions.
Reduce detection and response times to stop attacks faster.
Achieve OMB M-21-31 compliance with cost-effective, long-term storage (up to 30 months) across endpoint detection and response (EDR) telemetry as well as other data sources.
Retain existing SOC workflows through open, built-in security ecosystem integrations to deliver increased visibility and security context while reducing costs and operational resource burdens.
“The future of cybersecurity for federal agencies will be driven by data and the power of analytics to extract actionable and intelligent security insights at scale and with SentinelOne Singularity DataLake, they can deliver it today,” said McCloskey.

Semperis, a pioneer in identity-driven cyber resilience, and Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider®, today announced a partnership. Under the agreement, Carahsoft will serve as Semperis’ Public Sector Distributor, making the company’s industry-leading identity resilience platform available to the Public Sector through Carahsoft’s reseller partners and National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO) ValuePoint, National Cooperative Purchasing Alliance (NCPA), and OMNIA Partners contracts.
Active Directory (AD) and Azure AD (now Entra ID), used by 90% of organizations worldwide to authenticate and access critical applications and services, are under sustained attack in the Public Sector by numerous threat actors. The Semperis and Carahsoft partnership will accelerate delivery of comprehensive identity threat detection and response (ITDR) solutions for protecting hybrid AD environments across U.S. Public Sector entities.
“Our partnership with Carahsoft will further expand adoption of our identity-first security solutions designed to help Federal, State and Local Government agencies protect their critical identity systems from ransomware and other directory-related attacks,” said Jared Vichengrad, Vice President, Public Sector at Semperis. “We are excited to join Carahsoft’s trusted partner network of Government IT solution providers to prevent, detect and mitigate proliferating identity attacks that are disrupting operations in the Public Sector.”
Identity-related attacks on Public Sector entities are intensifying in scale and severity amidst an expanding digital attack surface and increasingly sophisticated attack techniques. Verizon’s 2023 DBIR reveals that from November 1, 2021, through October 31, 2022, public administration entities faced 3,273 incidents—and of those, 584 with confirmed data disclosure.
The Public Sector is a high-value target for cyber criminals who seek to disrupt State and Local Governments, schools and public utilities in record numbers. These attacks can steal or encrypt data, disturb services and jeopardize public safety. Public Sector organizations are particularly vulnerable to AD attacks because of legacy infrastructure, lack of identity security expertise and limited resources. With a multi-layered defense approach that spans the identity attack lifecycle, Semperis offers the industry’s most comprehensive security and recovery solutions for hybrid AD environments, combined with deep incident response expertise.
“We are thrilled to partner with Semperis and our reseller network to offer its identity resilience platform, provide advanced ITDR solutions and protect Public Sector customers’ hybrid AD systems from attacks,” said Brian O’Donnell, Vice President of Cybersecurity solutions at Carahsoft. “We repeatedly see how vital it is to prevent bad actors from infiltrating Government systems and how having the right solutions on board can make a significant impact in remediation. We are committed helping Public Sector organizations get access to Semperis solutions to safeguard citizens’ data and facilitate uninterrupted Public Sector services.”
Semperis’ technology and services are available through Carahsoft’s NASPO ValuePoint Master Agreement #AR2472, NCPA Contract NCPA01-86, and OMNIA Partners Contract #R191902. For more information, contact the Semperis team at Carahsoft at (703) 889-9808 or Semperis@carahsoft.com.
