Knox Systems announced a new Knox Palantir partnership today. Knox ranks among the world’s largest Federal and Department of War (DoW) Managed Cloud providers. The agreement with Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ: PLTR) targets customers with critical mission sets in FedRAMP and IL5 environments.
With this move, Palantir doubles down on putting the best technology into the hands of the warfighter and the U.S. Government. The mission demands both velocity and security, and Palantir aims to deliver both. Knox already serves more than 100 leading AI and enterprise software applications across federal environments. As a result, the two companies gain the scale and speed to deliver these outcomes.
The Knox Palantir partnership combines two proven models and technologies. First, Palantir has helped leading software companies deploy to the federal government on Palantir’s accredited infrastructure. Meanwhile, Knox has built an accelerated path to FedRAMP authorization. It delivers that authorization in 90 days, or often, less. Together, they give commercial innovators one clear route into the government.
Mission-Critical Software Moves Faster in Regulated Environments
Consequently, the Knox Palantir partnership gives mission-critical applications access to the most secure infrastructure available. Meanwhile, vendors still deploy their products on their own schedule and at the fastest pace possible.
“The mission can’t wait for technology to catch up. We built our business to get not only our software, but other mission-critical software and tooling, into the hands of the warfighter and the U.S. Government, quickly and securely, and in the most highly regulated environments,” said Kevin Kawasaki, Palantir Global Head of Business Development. “We are proud to work with Knox to deliver against the next wave of this effort, and scale this impact of this work more broadly.”
“Palantir sets the standard for how leading-edge software transforms our government, and operating in FedRAMP and IL5 environments has been a critical part of that mission. Now we’re going to scale these efforts,” said Irina Denisenko, CEO, Knox Systems. “Knox exists to get the best software in the world to the government faster, and to protect it once it’s there. We’re honored to work with Palantir on this delivery.”
Overall, the collaboration serves software firms that want federal customers but face heavy compliance demands. By pairing Palantir’s accredited infrastructure with Knox’s FedRAMP route, the companies aim to shorten that path. Furthermore, the Knox Palantir partnership strengthens the federal cloud options available to teams building for the warfighter.
