HYAS Moves to Further Develop Federal Market Presence

VICTORIA, British Columbia — May 19, 2020 — HYAS joins a select group of cybersecurity companies participating in Dcode Accelerate, a program designed to help emerging tech companies break into and scale in the federal market successfully. Over the course of 10 weeks, HYAS will work closely with Dcode to develop its federal strategy and connect with hundreds of key government and industry leaders.

 “We are excited to amplify our government involvement by participating in Dcode Accelerate. Our solutions streamline cyber threat investigations, allow agencies to more quickly identify and counter adversaries behind those cyber threats, and proactively protect government infrastructure. We are confident that the efficiencies gained from and protection provided by HYAS solutions will deliver value to the Federal government,” said David Ratner, CEO of HYAS.

 Dcode Accelerate brings emerging tech solutions from the private sector to government missions, and Dcode selected HYAS out of hundreds of applications through a rigorous vetting process.

 The Covid-19 outbreak emphasizes the U.S. government’s need for cybersecurity solutions, as adversaries wage cyber attacks during a vulnerable time. Technical difficulties due to widespread government telework can impede existing processes and compromise cyber posture.

“The government needs to ensure its cyber posture is top-notch, especially given widespread teleworking,” said Dcode CEO Meagan Metzger. “These cybersecurity companies are taking steps to enter the federal market at a time when their tech is essential not only to maintain the status quo but to advance missions and respond quickly to the ongoing crisis.”

HYAS joins this esteemed group of cybersecurity companies that collectively have raised over $300 million in venture capital funding.

 The program will kick off virtually on May 19. Dcode will host virtual briefings, roundtables, and receptions for both government and industry stakeholders to introduce HYAS to relevant agency programs and prime contractors. The Dcode team and community of mentors will also provide hands-on support, tools, and materials to guide the cybersecurity cohort to work with the U.S. government effectively.
