Plurilock Security Inc said that Aurora Systems Consulting, Inc, a wholly-owned subsidiary, has received a US$111,000 order from the US Air Force as part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration's (NASA) Solution for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) program, a US Government-Wide Acquisition Contract Vehicle.
According to the purchase order, Aurora will provide the US Air Force with subscription renewal for threat prevention software. It said the order aligns with its stated goal of expanding within the government vertical.
Including the latest order, all contracts and orders since April 2021 announced by the company and its subsidiaries, represent a combined total of roughly US$12.34 million in sales, Plurilock noted.

“The growing cyber threat has US citizens concerned, with 53% of surveyed respondents expressing that they lacked confidence in the US government's infrastructure when faced with a cyberattack,” Plurilock said, citing the results of a SecZetta survey in Forbes.
“This underscores the need for the US Air Force and related agencies to work with vendors that have extensive experience in cybersecurity and IT support solutions.”
The SEWP V program, launched by NASA in 2015, is the leading IT contract vehicle, with government agencies spending $7.9 billion in fiscal 2020. Estimates anticipate that agencies will utilize SEWP V for $8.8 billion in contracted spending in fiscal 2021. The contract vehicle provides Plurilock with the opportunity to access downstream customers in the government sector.
