Oligo Security, a company specializing in runtime security, has announced its participation in Palantir Technologies’ (Nasdaq: PLTR) FedStart program. This collaboration is designed to accelerate Oligo’s path toward FedRAMP High and DoD Impact Level 5 (IL5) compliance, thereby enabling government agencies to implement real-time protection across their applications, cloud workloads, and AI systems.
Palantir FedStart is a SaaS offering and strategic initiative aimed at assisting innovative companies in navigating the process of achieving FedRAMP authorization and Department of Defense (DoD) Impact Level accreditation. By leveraging Palantir’s established security infrastructure, cloud expertise, and government compliance experience through FedStart, Oligo aims to significantly reduce the time required to achieve an Authority to Operate (ATO) for federal deployments.
Nadav Czerninski, Co-Founder and CEO of Oligo Security, stated, “Security teams can no longer afford to detect attacks after an attacker has a foothold. Modern attacks are AI-assisted, move at high velocity, and exploit gaps where most tools have no visibility: at runtime. Through Palantir’s FedStart program, we’re bringing real-time protection to federal agencies, enabling them to better prioritize risk and stop attacks as they happen.”
Traditional security solutions often operate in silos, which may not align with how modern attacks occur. These solutions frequently provide passive visibility, flagging theoretical vulnerabilities or, in some cases, identifying the symptoms of successful attacks. Oligo’s approach to runtime security unifies protection across applications, cloud workloads, and AI systems by observing what actually runs in production. This method allows Oligo to identify truly exploitable vulnerabilities, detect malicious behavior as it unfolds, and block exploit attempts without affecting production environments. The goal is to reduce alert noise, protect critical systems from both known and unknown threats, and base security programs on real-time production activity.
Palantir’s FedStart program grants technology companies access to its secure software development infrastructure, compliance frameworks, and government accreditation expertise. The program’s objective is to expedite federal compliance while upholding rigorous security standards, ensuring innovative solutions can be delivered to government agencies.
Ali Monfre, Head of Palantir’s FedStart Program, commented, “By joining the FedStart program, Oligo Security can accelerate its path to achieving FedRAMP High and DoD IL5 authorization and bring their unique technology to government customers. We’re excited to support Oligo as they work to deliver their software to the government partners who need it.”
Oligo Security offers a runtime security platform designed to address the challenge of stopping attacks in real-time without disrupting business operations. The platform aims to transform security from passive visibility to active protection across applications, cloud services, workloads, and AI. By uncovering the deepest layers of what runs in production, Oligo enables customers to prioritize exploitable vulnerabilities, detect malicious behavior, and stop modern attacks.
