Challenge
The ATO process is designed to ensure cybersecurity rigor, but its complexity and manual nature often become barriers to progress. AiComply’s NavigateCyber platform needed to overcome two critical challenges:
Explainability of
AI Outcomes
In government environments, opaque or unverifiable AI answers are unacceptable.
Accreditation reviewers must see what data was used, where it came from, and how it informed conclusions.
Without explainability, hallucinations or unverifiable reasoning would stall approvals and undermine trust.
Integration Across
Hundreds of Systems
The defense industrial base depends on a web of hundreds of systems and databases.
Traditional integration approaches stretched timelines and cost, making it nearly impossible to accelerate accreditation.
AiComply needed a partner who could deliver both transparency and scale.
Solution: MindsDB
Transparent, Explainable AI
MindsDB equips AiComply with the ability to show a full chain of thought behind every AI-driven answer. With this, NavigateCyber can:
Trace answers back to the exact data source.
Surface how the data was selected and applied in reasoning.
Provide reviewers with auditable, defensible evidence.
This ensures that AI-driven compliance insights are transparent, reliable, and aligned with public sector standards.
Connectivity to 200+ Systems
MindsDB’s connectivity across 200+ data sources allows AiComply to reduce integration timelines from months to days. This broad coverage brings critical compliance data online quickly, enabling faster assessments and accelerating customer readiness.
The result is not just efficiency, but transformation:
Agencies can cut costs and timelines by up to 90%, while ensuring cybersecurity rigor is never compromised.
