That product you refer to was based on the SDK. That process takes weeks if not months to code into a small system. SDK is fine for a small company but not the larger companies. They require more of an automated installation process and that's where "Enterprise" comes in. Enterprise is what the resellers need.
This is just my take on the situation, no evidence, pure speculation. Borene was taking the company in a direction of FIPS cert for mobile devices. Not a big money maker as compared to an Enterprise solution. Yes, the company has an Enterprise solution by way of a SDK (Software Development Kit) This solution requires coding by the end user for implementation purposes. No easy and a time consuming task. As stated earlier, the Enterprise solution is where the immediate need is and I suspect that the company is now focused on this area. For implementation purposes they most likely need an installation package similar to what you get when you buy software applications for your PC. This is no easy task and this package would have to cover the Windows PC/Server platforms, Linux , Unix, MAC (Apple) and whatever else I missed. Enterprise customers and Government entities are comprised of a mixture of operating systems. Once again, this my opinion only for what it's worth.

There's been debate weather CLOK has any products. In this case you're describing vaporware. If this is true, how come CLOK was granted FIPS140-2 validation in March of 2019?
CipherLoc Corporation: CipherLoc Earns FIPS 140-2 Validation for Data Security and Encryption Solutions
Polymorphic Encryption Engine Completes FIPS 140-2 Certification
AUSTIN, TX / ACCESSWIRE / March 4, 2019 / CipherLoc Corporation (OTCQB:CLOK), a provider of highly secure, quantum-safe data protection technology, today announced FIPS 140-2 (Federal Information Processing Standard 140-2) validation certificate #3381 has been awarded to the CipherLoc Polymorphic Encryption Engine Core solution by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST).
CipherLoc's Polymorphic Encryption Engine data security and encryption solutions are now eligible to be procured by U.S. federal agencies, government service providers and other organizations that require products to be certified to meet security standards for protecting sensitive information. FIPS 140-2 credentials also support CipherLoc's use in regulated industries such as utilities, finance, and healthcare. These verticals are expected to offer significant opportunities for CipherLoc's future growth.
FIPS 140-2 was established by NIST and their Canadian counterpart, the Communications Security Establishment (CSE), to establish benchmarks for cryptography, as well as the methodology for testing against those benchmarks. If a solution has a FIPS 140-2 certificate, it is only because it has been tested and formally validated by the U.S. and Canadian Governments. FIPS 140-2 has been widely adopted around the world in both public and private sectors as a practical security benchmark and realistic best practice.
The FIPS 140-2 validation was granted after an independently accredited lab put the CipherLoc encryption module through a rigorous NIST-specified series of tests, managed by SafeLogic. After assessing conformance with the FIPS 140-2 standard, the module's test report was sent to the Cryptographic Module Validation Program (CMVP), operated by the NIST and the CSE. Their joint office confirmed compliance and issued certificate #3381, available publicly here (https://csrc.nist.gov/Projects/Cryptographic-Module-Validation-Program/Certificate/3381).
clok-em-dead,
I hope your dream comes true!
WOW!
And a thankyou to those of you that flushed out the MDLG (Mickey) for the scan artist he appears to be. So to you TronCarter and the others, please accept my sincerest thank you and forgive me for doubting your posts!
About ManTech:
ManTech was founded in 1968 to provide advanced technological services to the U.S. Government. We began with a single Navy contract to develop war-gaming models for the submarine community. Over the years, our government's technology needs have increased dramatically in scope and sophistication, and we have grown to meet that challenge.
For 5 decades, we kept a careful eye on where emerging technologies were taking the government, and we developed the resources to master those technologies—by staying close to our customers and anticipating their needs, hiring nearly 8,000 talented professionals to propel us into the future, and acquiring companies with proven capabilities.
Today, we are a multibillion-dollar public company that provides the innovation, adaptability and critical thinking our government needs for success in defense, intelligence, law enforcement, science, administration, health and other fields—throughout the nation and in many countries around the world. We are now applying the lessons learned in the unforgiving arena of national security to help the private sector protect networks and critical information.
Agreed
Depending on the scope of the project, there's a reason why you need a security clearance to even step foot on the property. And depending on the level of your clearance, you may be limited to specific areas.

Since you have experience with this...
You can confirm that all government contracts are preceded by an RFI and RFP - there are no such things a secret government contracts. The government says we need a vendor who can do this or that and firms 'BID'.
ABSOLUTELY TRUE DEPENDING ON THE NATURE OF THE RFI HOWEVER, THE RESULTS OF THESE BID'S ARE NOT ALWAYS KNOWN FOR SECURITY REASONS. DEPENDS ON THE "TYPE" AND "SECURITY CLEANANCE REQUIREMENTS". CIPHERLOC IS NOT SELLING NUTS AND BOLTS, ETC... MATTERS OF NATIONAL SECURITY ARE NOT COMMON KNOWLEDGE. IN THE CONTRACT AND THE DEPLOYMENT I EXPERIENCED, THE PRIME COULD NOT MAKE A PRESS RELEASE. COMPLETE SILENCE! THE REVENUE WAS IN THE BOOKS BUT NO WORD, NOT EVEN INTERNAL ON WHERE THE REVENUE CAME FROM EXCEPT THAT IT WAS A GOVERMENT SALE.
CLOK can in face discuss what they are bidding on. The haven't because there hasn't been any bids.
SEE ABOVE
I'd also like to see proof that 'Oz' in on this committee... that should be public info as well.
GOOD LUCK FINDING GOV/MIL "IN THE WORKS COMMITTEE STANDARDS INFORMATION" HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A RFI FOR SOMEONE TO CREATE TOP SECRET PARTS FOR OUR DRONES OR MISSLES? I REST MY CASE.....
Amen clock-em-dead. Unless you're the prime contractor (like a DataPath), then you must be silent. You cannot make any statements period! First hand experience in this type of sale and deployment as a sub-contractor to the Prime. And let's not forget that the government is in the process of creating a new standard for encryption that's quantum computer proof. Nobody will buy and deploy (gov/mil) a solution that doesn't satisfy this new standard. Also, who from Cypherloc is on this standards committee? OZ is!
Let's remember the investor update call where it was stated that the Gov is in process of writing a new specification specifically targeting a new cryptography method that's immune to quantum computing. "Oz" was one of the leads on this new spec board. Specification creation and ratification moves rather slow but let's hope not too slow. Once completed the Gov and Mil will seek solutions that satisfy this new spec requirement. HELLO Cipherloc!
To me it looks like CLOK found someone to do the actual installations of the software which requires the security credentials to work gov sites. To the best of my knowledge CLOK does not have an installation or Professional Services organization for deployments. This comment is not based on any credible information but strictly reading in between the lines (so to speak).
On April 24, 2019 the Company entered into an Operating Agreement with Ageos, LLC a Virginia Limited Liability Company. The Operator has the required expertise, clearances and credentials to work with certain US government departments, agencies and affiliates; and the Operator will assist the Company in securing sales to the US Government and other contracts. The Company’s products will be sold to the Government at our normal pricing and the Company agreed to guarantee the lease for the secured facility in Virginia and to advance the cost at an amount not to exceed $1.6 million annually including the lease guarantee. The advanced funds will be reimbursed to the Company from Ageos’ profits generated by Ageos sales of the Company’s products.
New to this message board but experienced with GOV contracts. Be patient, you may never see a press release for a GOV contract. Government, especially military don't like exposure when security is concerned. In a previous life, our largest sale in company history was to the DHS. No press release or mention to the outside world. Not even an internal memo within the company. Remember, it's all about securing the Data!
