Plurilock Security (PLUR.C) subsidiary Aurora Systems Consulting acquired government contracts from the United States Department of Defense and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security respectively for a total of USD $306,000 as part of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s (NASA) Solution for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) program.
This isn’t the first time Plurilock’s gotten the SEWP either. Most of their business came from lucrative government contracts last year, and this is the third time they’ve been awarded a contract from the U.S. government and it’s only February. They’ve managed to bring in a combined total of $853,000 in sales so far this year.
Given what Plurilock offers there’s little surprise that the government wouldn’t be interested. They provide identity-centric cybersecurity. No more multi-factor identification, no more bulky passwords. None of that. This technology watches the way you type and handle your mouse and continually determines who you are from individually captured biometrics, paired with AI-driven and cloud friendly security.
The orders are part of the SEWP V program and work towards fulfilling Plurilock’s goal of expanding within the government and defense verticals. It makes sense. You go where the money is, and United States government agencies have a ton of it. Homeland Security seems like a perfect fit for Pluirilock given what they’re responsible for—namely, multiple areas of domestic security including counterterrorism and cyberspace threats.

Global cybercrime is anticipated to reach $10.5 trillion annually by 2025, according to Cybersecurity Ventures, which means there will be more demand for organizations to forge partnerships with cybersecurity and IT vendors.
