The new office consolidates the company’s Security and Risk Operations Centers into a single hub, placing DevOps and cybersecurity teams in immediate proximity to government partners. This physical integration supports the firm's core mission: reducing the time required for FedRAMP authorization, which the company currently claims to complete in 90 days.

Hemant Baidwan, Executive Chief Information Security Officer and former CISO of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, noted that the proximity allows for more responsive collaboration on mission-critical security tasks. The firm currently employs nearly 70 people, with plans for further hiring to address the gap between the government’s $100 billion annual software spend and the limited number of SaaS applications currently cleared for federal use. CEO Irina Denisenko emphasized that the location serves as a strategic investment in the agencies that rely on Knox to manage production environments for clients like Acsense and Sierra.
