INITIATING SECURE CHANNEL
You stay on the mission. We build and accredit the secure facility it runs in, and we engineer the air-gapped software that runs inside it. End to end. Cleared. Turnkey.
Come with nothing: no clearance, no site, no drawings. We carry the whole path. One team. One contract.
No prior cleared posture required. We sponsor and walk the facility clearance (FCL) process with you, from the SF-328 through the DCSA review, so a first-time entrant can stand up cleared work on a credible timeline.
Email us about FCL sponsorship ▸We design and build to ICD-705 and the current technical specifications (TSPM). We work to whatever contract vehicle and billing structure fits the program: fixed-price, cost-reimbursable, time-and-materials, or other. You see the scope before the first wall goes up.
Email us about a build ▸Shielding designed, installed, and verified by measurement against the attenuation your accreditation requires. We hand you the test results, not a promise.
Email us about RF and TEMPEST ▸We assemble the accreditation evidence and stay in the room for the review. The package is built to be defensible, and we present it with you rather than handing you a binder and stepping back.
Email us about accreditation ▸Accreditation is a beginning, not an end. We stay on for re-inspections, configuration changes, and the day-to-day that keeps a facility in good standing for the life of the program.
Email us about sustainment ▸Where scope allows, we have reached occupancy in roughly four to six months against an industry norm of twelve to twenty-four. Your timeline depends on starting posture. We scope it honestly, then commit to a date we can hold.
Scope your timeline ▸The Praesidium Suite runs entirely inside accredited, air-gapped environments. No cloud. No outbound calls. Four instruments, each named for a Roman office:
The keeper of secrets. Pythian handles encryption, key storage, and secure-comms signing for offline environments, and it is HSM-compatible. It is the instrument that is in the field today.
Email us about Pythian ▸The seer. Vates is an on-prem analytic and forecasting engine. The model, its weights, and every trace stay on local hardware. Nothing leaves the boundary. You can try the public scoping version now.
Consult the Oracle ▸The watch. Vigil ingests telemetry from an accredited environment and watches for drift and abnormal tool-call patterns, the way Rome's night watch kept the city while it slept. In development now.
Email us about Vigil ▸The delegate. Legatus takes an analyst's intent, breaks it into a multi-step workflow, calls models and tools through a controlled registry, and stops at a human for approval before any sensitive action. Authority is delegated, never unsupervised. In build now.
Email us about Legatus ▸Off-the-shelf software assumes the internet. Inside an accredited or air-gapped facility, that assumption breaks. So we build to your environment instead of asking you to bend to ours. You describe the mission. We engineer the tool.
> salian build --to-spec [ok] environment scoped [ok] evidence packaged > salian status operational
We start with the mission and the constraints, not a product demo. You tell us what the tool has to do and where it has to live. We tell you what it takes.
Email us what you're building ▸On-prem, fully air-gapped, or cloud-connected at IL4 through IL6. We build for the boundary you actually operate in, including environments with no outbound network at all.
Email us about your environment ▸Software for accredited spaces is only finished when the paperwork is. We deliver the accreditation evidence alongside the build so it can pass review, not just run.
Email us about accreditation evidence ▸We stay on after delivery. Updates, fixes, and changes happen on your schedule and inside your boundary, for the life of the program.
Email us about long-term support ▸The Salii were the leaping warrior-priests of Mars, entrusted with the ancile, the sacred shield said to have fallen from the sky as a sign Rome would endure. To keep it from being stolen, eleven identical copies were forged: twelve shields in all, indistinguishable, so no enemy could ever single out the true one. You cannot steal what you cannot single out.
The people who build and accredit your space are cleared before they begin. The standard is the entry condition, not the goal.
We measure ourselves on facilities that pass and dates that hold. The proof is the delivery record, not the pitch.
The Salii were chosen for the duty, not the reward. We hire the same way. If that sounds like you, the door is open.
Join the unit ▸Our mark is the ancile, the sacred shield the Salii were sworn to protect, set against the spear of Mars. Look at it straight on and it reads as a shield: something held, something defended. Turn it on its side and the same form becomes an eye, open and watching. That second reading is deliberate. Our founder came up inside the intelligence community, building the machine-learning systems and sensor platforms behind the work people call the eye in the sky. The mark carries both halves: the shield that protects, and the eye that sees.
Tell us what you're protecting. We'll tell you how we'd approach it and what it takes. First reply within one business day.
