Cybeats Renews and Expands Contract with U.S. Government Security Agency

In This Article:

Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - May 1, 2025) - Cybeats Technologies Corp. (CSE: CYBT) (OTCQB: CYBCF) ("Cybeats'' or the "Company"), a leader in software supply chain security, announces a contract renewal with a major U.S. security agency, with an expanded contract. Due to the highly sensitive nature of this engagement, specific details regarding Cybeats' client and contract terms remain confidential in order to safeguard national interests and uphold the operational security of the client.

With global cybersecurity threats intensifying, regulatory bodies and national security initiatives are advancing Software Bill of Material (SBOM) adoption across a number of agencies and sectors. Throughout the U.S., organizations spanning critical infrastructure sectors-including energy, industrial control systems, healthcare, and defense-are increasingly prioritizing software transparency and risk mitigation, reinforcing Cybeats' role as a trusted partner in cybersecurity and compliance.1

"In a time of heightened geopolitical uncertainty, we are seeing increased demand for SBOM technology from the government sector, especially in the U.S., which is critical to national security and economic resilience," said Justin Leger, CEO of Cybeats. "Our renewed engagement with a major U.S. federal agency underscores the essential role of SBOMs in protecting software supply chains and builds upon Cybeats' leadership in the government vertical. Governments worldwide represent a significant and growing market for SBOM adoption."

The Expanding Role of SBOMs in National Security

Government-backed cybersecurity initiatives have recognized the importance of SBOMs in protecting energy grids, sensitive devices, and industrial and institutional software ecosystems. As part of a broader effort to fortify the robustness of operational technology and critical systems, organizations are increasingly prioritizing enhanced software visibility, vulnerability tracking, and compliance automation.

Recent developments in U.S. federal cybersecurity policy further reinforce this momentum. The Department of Defense's introduction of the SWIFT (Secure Workflow Initiative for Fast-Track) process mandates the submission of third-party-certified SBOMs for both sandbox and production environments-ushering in a faster, AI-driven approach to software authorization. This policy change not only reflects a shift away from legacy RMF and ATO processes, but also underscores the need for tools that can evaluate the quality of SBOMs, not just their presence.2
