RJ Lee and Carahsoft Make Post-Quantum Security Products Available Through Government Contract Vehicles

RJ Lee Group and Carahsoft Technology Corp. announced a partnership to make RJ Lee’s quantum-resilient cybersecurity products available to public-sector buyers. Carahsoft will act as RJ Lee Group’s Master Government Aggregator, using its reseller network and existing NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP V) and E&I Cooperative Services contract vehicles. The announcement identifies a path for agencies to assess and potentially purchase the offerings through established channels; it does not announce a new solicitation, contract award, pricing, ceiling or response deadline. Buyers will need to confirm that a particular product and reseller are eligible under the applicable vehicle terms and agency procedures.

The portfolio addresses two distinct security needs: phishing-resistant identity authentication and protection of data against future quantum-capable threats. Greenlight is described as an image-based, passwordless authentication capability. Its primary sign-in does not rely on a password, one-time code or push approval that an attacker could steal or replay, and authentication completes on the device. RJ Lee says this enables access in denied, disconnected, intermittent and low-bandwidth (DDIL) environments. The product is intended for populations for which issuing PIV or CAC credentials may be impractical, including mission partners, new accessions and credential-recovery workflows, and is designed to work with existing identity infrastructure, including Microsoft Entra ID and CAC/PIV.

For data protection, Quantum Shroud applies layered post-quantum protection to data in motion and can be deployed at enclave boundaries without modifying existing systems, according to the announcement. The update describes its cryptography as based on NIST-standardized FIPS 203 ML-KEM and FIPS 204 ML-DSA. Quantum Guard extends the same standards-based post-quantum encryption approach to data on the device. Together, the products are positioned as tools for Zero Trust programs and preparation for CNSA 2.0 timelines, including protection against “harvest-now, decrypt-later” risks. These are vendor descriptions; prospective buyers should assess technical documentation, interoperability, security requirements and deployment constraints as part of their own evaluation.

The procurement significance is the availability of a purchasing route through existing vehicles, rather than the creation of a funded requirement. RJ Lee Group Vice President of Government Programs Scott Monfredo said federal mandates “from the DoW Zero Trust Strategy to OMB M-22-09 and OMB M-26-15” require adoption of phishing-resistant authentication and post-quantum cryptography on aggressive timelines. Carahsoft Sales Director Rob Pickle, who oversees the RJ Lee Group, said the partnership aims to make the solutions “more accessible to Government agencies” and help protect mission-critical data and identities in complex environments. For contracting teams, the practical next steps are to identify eligible reseller partners, review SEWP V or E&I terms, validate product fit and obtain current pricing directly. Integrators and service contractors may also assess whether implementation, identity integration or enclave deployment support could be relevant to agency evaluations.
