Army Endpoint Security Solution (AESS)
Cybersecurity is a mission-critical priority for the U.S. military. The Army Endpoint Security Solution (AESS) defends 750,000 Army and Joint devices — including servers and desktops, both classified and unclassified — against persistent and evolving cyber threats. AESS protects one of the largest and most complex endpoint security environments in the world, operating 24/7/365 as the only true managed security service used by the U.S. Army.
Delivered by ECS as a fully managed platform-as-a-service (PaaS), AESS provides real-time situational awareness and advanced protection at scale. Working in close coordination with ARCYBER, DISA, and other mission partners, the platform uses commercial tools, AI, and automation to detect, prevent, and respond to known and unknown threats. This includes support for threat intelligence collection and incident response by Army cyber teams worldwide.
AESS continuously innovates to protect critical Army infrastructure by keeping software, servers, and systems secure, approved, and mission ready. It supports global cyber defense through features like:
- Vulnerability and risk management
- Machine learning
- Zero trust architecture
- Data mesh architecture providing real-time enterprise visibility
- Adaptive threat prevention with real time cyber threat intelligence sharing
- Continuous monitoring
- Comply-to-Connect
Its hybrid cloud architecture delivers continuous modernization and instantaneous visibility, powering a resilient cybersecurity ecosystem that enables Army leaders to make data-driven decisions in real time.
