Transformative Benefits for States
Quantum secure systems
Quantum encrypted security systems are created for states to protect against multi-dimensional risk, including the threats of AI and quantum computing.
Standardization and consistency
START results in a unified security infrastructure and consistent protocols across state agencies, programs, and users to eliminate fragmentation and ensure security across state government.
Seamless improvements to existing security investments
State agencies address emerging threats while preserving and maximizing their existing investments in security tools. Over time, investments are no longer needed in reactive, operationally burdensome cybersecurity tools.
Address the critical shortage of qualified cybersecurity professionals
States can stop adversaries from breaching systems, lessening the need for intensive detection and remediation efforts—allowing rightsized cybersecurity teams to focus on security operations rather than crisis response.
Cross-agency collaboration
Users are reconciled to a single security credential across systems, applications, and platforms. This breaks down silos, provides efficiencies, prevents credential sprawl, and facilitates information sharing across agencies without compromising personal privacy.
Privacy by design
START is built on privacy-preserving mechanisms, including dedicated purpose, limited use, and transparency. No personally identifiable information (PII) is requested, purchased, or acquired to create security credentials, nor is PII required for confirmation processes.
Meets the needs of a diverse and complex user base
START is built on a single protocol that applies for all users (employees, partners, citizens) and can be utilized in person and remotely without dedicated smartphones and computers, ensuring all groups have access.
