Public sector organizations face growing cybersecurity threats, evolving compliance mandates, and constant pressure to do more with limited resources.
Preferred helps government agencies and contractors modernize their technology, strengthen security, and meet compliance standards, all with reliable, transparent support that delivers measurable results.
As a CMMC Level II–ready provider, we understand what it takes to protect sensitive data, maintain uptime, and ensure accountability in every environment.
Government agencies and contractors operate in some of the most demanding IT environments.
Balancing compliance, performance, and cost control can be overwhelming, especially with limited internal staff and legacy infrastructure.
We help solve these common challenges:
Compliance complexity across CMMC, NIST 800-171, DFARS, and local mandates
Outdated systems that create vulnerabilities and inefficiencies
Fragmented vendors and unclear accountability for cybersecurity oversight
Limited in-house expertise to meet growing security expectations
Budget constraints that make modernization difficult
Increased risk of ransomware and phishing attacks targeting public data
We deliver secure, compliant, and cost-effective IT solutions designed for public entities, government contractors, and organizations working toward or maintaining CMMC compliance.
Our proactive approach combines strategic alignment, constant monitoring, and human-centered partnership — giving you peace of mind that your systems are secure, compliant, and mission-ready.
Preferred is actively achieving CMMC Level II certification and has helped numerous clients prepare for CMMC and NIST 800-171 compliance.
We work with your compliance team or third party compliance partners to deliver the cybersecurity controls, vulnerability remediation, and documentations, ensuring that every requirement is met for your specific compliance needs.
Our Compliance Support Includes:

At Preferred, we utilize our outcome driven process and wide range of knowledge, to recommend the right solution for your business. Whether that be a move to the regulated Microsoft GCC tenant, siloing data to only be accessed and shared by the right staff members, or a novel solution specifically built for your workflows and needs, we have you covered. Our team ensures continuity, accessibility, and cost savings without compromising compliance or security.
Public budgets demand predictability. Our flat-rate, fully managed model eliminates hourly billing and ensures consistent support.
