๐Ÿ“‹ The Prime Contractor Reality

Your Contract Requires Compliant Hosting. That's Not Your Core Business.

You're a prime contractor. Your value is in delivering the website, the content, the digital services โ€” not in managing Linux servers, applying Drupal security advisories, or building FedRAMP documentation packages. That's our job.

  • FISMA Compliance Is Now Your Liability

    Federal web contracts increasingly require the hosting environment to be FISMA authorized. Without a compliant platform, your contract is at risk before you write a single line of content.

  • Drupal Security Advisories Don't Wait

    The Drupal Security Team releases critical advisories that require rapid patching. Unpatched Drupal core or modules on a federal system creates immediate audit risk โ€” and is your team's problem without a managed host.

  • You Didn't Bid to Be a Cloud Ops Team

    Hiring Linux admins, security engineers, and compliance writers to support your hosting environment consumes margin and diverts talent from the deliverables that win you the next contract.

๐Ÿ“Œ GovDataHosting is structured to fulfill the hosting and security compliance requirements in your prime contract โ€” so you can put our platform in your subcontract line and focus on delivery.

๐Ÿ”„ Managed Patch Program

Monthly Patching โ€” Automated, Tested, Documented

Drupal vulnerabilities are a leading attack vector on federal websites. GDH's automated patch program eliminates the risk of unpatched systems while removing the operational burden from your team entirely.

1

Security Advisory Monitoring

We monitor Drupal's Security Team advisories in real time โ€” identifying applicable patches for your specific core version and installed modules within hours of release.

Real-Time
2

Staging Deployment & Testing

All patches are deployed to a staging environment first and tested for compatibility with your theme, custom modules, and configuration before production deployment.

Automated Testing
3

Production Patch Deployment

Approved patches are deployed to production during a maintenance window โ€” with rollback capability and zero-downtime procedures for high-traffic federal sites.

Monthly Cycle
4

Documentation & ATO Evidence

Every patch applied is logged, timestamped, and documented as ATO evidence โ€” satisfying ConMon requirements and POA&M remediation tracking automatically.
