Project Hosts solves the complex compliance challenges faced by DoW agencies and software vendors seeking to operate at IL4 and IL5. Our solutions are designed to meet you where you are, providing the necessary tools and support to navigate the DoW certification journey efficiently.
Meeting DISA’s rigorous security requirements is essential for DoW mission partners, but the Authorization and Assessment (A&A) process can be complex, costly and time-consuming.
Project Hosts simplifies this journey. By onboarding your Cloud IT Projects (C-ITPs) to our IL5-authorized Federal Private Cloud DoW Environment, you inherit the majority of the required security controls which. This significantly reduces your compliance burden and accelerates deployment — making cloud adoption faster, easier and fully aligned with DoW standards.
Achieving DoW certification demands substantial time, resources and expertise. Project Hosts reduces this burden, offering solutions that accelerate certification and minimize costs.
By leveraging our knowledge and proven methodologies, you can navigate the complexities of DoW compliance and focus on core business priorities.

Project Hosts is the only cloud service provider with an IL5 PA that offers VDSS and VDMS.
Multiple DoW agencies are using the GSSOne to their advantage.
Project Hosts routinely advances through the certification processes, ensuring we’re intimately familiar with requirements and can leverage our experience to deliver a smooth path forward.
Most CSPs cover less than 15% of IL5 controls, but our PaaS manages over 75%.
You don’t force us into your platform or make us use tool sets that aren’t in our native architecture. That flexibility was extremely attractive to us.
The Project Hosts environment allowed us to snap in our application into their existing environment, which is accelerating our time to market, reduce costs and control staffing.
The Project Hosts team went through a level of detail that definitely stood out. Which was helpful for us. From a business perspective, this was one thing that re-assured us that this was a good move.’
To maintain the environment at the level required, I would’ve had to hire six to seven people I didn’t have. Project Hosts was 30 to 40% less than what I could’ve done in-house.
Project Hosts accelerates the process and brings assurance of delivery. Improving the probability that were going to pass the audit on the first try.
You guys are teaming up with the service branch, speaking their lingo, running the RMF process, and directing the armed services to get our certification – I mean, that’s priceless. As we move through this process we are able to focus on our business.
