Operational Intelligence

Operating out of Reston, Virginia, Bastion Forge Consulting has been serving clients since 2011. We specialize exclusively in securing regional banking networks. The modern threat landscape requires more than perimeter defense; it demands cryptographic certainty at every endpoint.

We pride ourselves on navigating complex regulatory environments. Check our compliance whitepapers for deeper technical insights.

Deployment Methodology

A rigorous, three-phase operational workflow designed for zero operational downtime.

Phase I

Threat Surface Mapping

We initiate deep-packet inspection and utilize active directory enumeration to map undocumented legacy dependencies. This uncovers shadow IT operating within critical VLANs, establishing a deterministic baseline of your current network entropy.

Phase II

Identity-Aware Proxy (IAP) Integration

Our proprietary Identity-Aware Proxy deployment phase ensures seamless NIST 800-207 compliance without disrupting legacy core banking operations. By injecting micro-segmentation policies at the hypervisor level, we decouple application access from network architecture. This means every request is authenticated and authorized based on device posture and user context, dynamically adjusting risk scores in real-time before granting access to sensitive financial ledgers.

Phase III

Continuous Validation

Post-deployment, we integrate automated configuration drift detection tied directly into your existing SIEM. This ensures that the Zero Trust architecture remains immutable against unauthorized internal modifications.
