We’re excited to announce that Unstructured has achieved an Authority to Operate (ATO) at Impact Level 5 (IL5), enabling the secure deployment of AI-ready data pipelines across defense environments handling Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI).

IL5 authorization allows Unstructured to support warfighting, intelligence, and enterprise missions by helping teams:

• Transform complex, unstructured data into AI-ready inputs
• Enable RAG, chatbots, and agentic GenAI workloads in secure networks
• Move AI from experimentation into mission-ready production use while meeting stringent security requirements

This milestone was achieved through Second Front Systems’ Game Warden platform, providing a hardened, compliant path for deploying commercial software into regulated government systems.

IL5 builds on Unstructured’s recent FedRAMP High authorization, reinforcing our role as the secure data layer for government GenAI at scale.
