Question 1

Can it work in a disconnected or air-gapped environment?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The platform deploys as containers (Docker or Kubernetes) with no runtime dependency on external networks. Framework updates, plugin feeds, and platform patches are delivered through secure transfer mechanisms appropriate to your environment's classification level. The full platform — 650+ pages, 500+ frameworks, scanner, SIEM, AI layer — runs entirely local.

Question 2

Does it integrate with eMASS?

Accepted Answer

Advisedly augments eMASS as an on-premises integration. The platform synchronizes control implementation details, assessment results, POA&M status, and system authorization data bidirectionally. eMASS remains the system of record for DoD; Advisedly provides the automation, evidence management, and continuous monitoring that eMASS doesn't do natively. See our eMASS augmentation documentation.

Question 3

How does AI governance work in classified environments?

Accepted Answer

The platform's BYOAI architecture separates the AI abstraction layer from the inference provider. In classified or air-gapped environments, point the AI layer at an on-premises vLLM deployment running on your own hardware. No data leaves your network. The governance layer — signed enforcement receipts, provenance tracking, per-agent budgets, kill switches — operates identically regardless of which inference provider backs it. Your AO gets full auditability without data sovereignty concerns.

Question 4

Is Advisedly available on Tradewinds?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Advisedly is Tradewinds awardable, available through the DoD's Tradewinds Solutions Marketplace. Your contracting office can use existing marketplace procurement mechanisms. Contact us at /assess for Tradewinds-specific acquisition guidance.
