Overview
System Design & Integration at Cyber Ops Consulting LLC unites secure architecture, infrastructure modernization, and technical implementation to meet the most demanding DoD, USACE, and federal contractor requirements.
Our approach bridges operational technology (OT) and information technology (IT) — designing systems that are secure, scalable, and compliant with CMMC 2.0, NIST SP 800-171, DFARS, and RMF standards.
Whether designing secure network architectures for mission-driven agencies or integrating control systems into smart facilities, we deliver solutions that balance engineering precision with cybersecurity assurance.
Scope of Services
Secure System Architecture & Network Engineering
Design and implement zero-trust architectures, segmented networks, and secure baselines for government and contractor environments.
OT / ICS / SCADA Integration
Implement security controls across industrial systems using frameworks like NIST SP 800-82 and IEC 62443, ensuring resilience in automation, manufacturing, and energy sectors.
System Hardening & Configuration Management
Apply DoD STIGs, CIS benchmarks, and continuous configuration enforcement to servers, endpoints, and hybrid systems.
Cross-Domain & Hybrid Infrastructure Design
Integrate on-premises, virtualized, and cloud-based systems in alignment with FedRAMP, RMF, and CMMC readiness goals.
Secure Design Reviews & Validation
Conduct design audits and risk assessments during engineering, construction, and commissioning phases for Design-Build and Infrastructure Modernization projects.
Cybersecurity Engineering Support for USACE Projects
Support federal facilities projects by embedding security into control systems, ensuring alignment with UFGS 25 05 11 (Cybersecurity of Facility-Related Control Systems) and UFC 4-010-06 standards.
Federal Examples & Deliverables
USACE Design-Build (DB) Facility Integration Projects
For Design-Build projects (e.g., DB Buildings 3–4), we incorporate secure control systems and federal-compliant network architectures as part of the engineering lifecycle.
Deliverables include:
- Cybersecurity Design Reports (CSDRs) documenting system architecture and risk posture.
- System Interface Control Documents (SICDs) ensuring secure data flow between building systems.
- Vulnerability Management Plan (VMP) with tailored mitigation for BAS/ICS devices.
- System Validation and Verification Package (V&V) ensuring compliance with DoD RMF Step 3 (Implement Controls).
Barnes Building Modernization (USACE Reference Model)
Applying USACE’s Barnes Building Renovation framework, our role aligns cybersecurity integration with mechanical, electrical, and control systems.
Example deliverables include:
- System Integration Security Controls Matrix (SISCM) mapping system assets to NIST and CMMC controls.
- BAS/ICS Risk Register and Mitigation Tracking Report.
- Secure Network Architecture Diagram (SNAD) for design approval and configuration validation.
- Security Certification Review Checklist (SCRC) per USACE and DoD CIO guidance.
Example Engagements
- Army Corps of Engineers: Integration of secure BAS/ICS control systems in infrastructure projects under UFGS 25 05 11.
- Federal Contractors & GSA Vendors: Design of compliant hybrid infrastructures aligned to CMMC 2.0 Level 2 requirements.
- Municipal & Utility Projects: Secure SCADA integration and network segmentation for local governments and public works.
