New analysis demonstrates the company’s
continued market leadership in cyber
Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) announced today it has been
recognized as the leading provider of cybersecurity to the federal
government, according to a leading provider of market intelligence,
GovWin from Deltek. In Deltek’s comprehensive Federal Cybersecurity
Market, 2024-2028 report, Booz Allen led in cyber-related prime
contract obligations from the federal government in fiscal years
2021 to 2023.
This news follows Booz Allen’s recent announcement of new
insights into the size and scope of its cyber business. Building on
more than 30 years of technology, tradecraft, and adversarial
insights, Booz Allen’s broad and deep cyber portfolio puts the
company at the center of nearly all major cyber missions across
public and private sectors. Today, the company has over 8,000 cyber
professionals delivering on nearly 300 active cyber projects
ranging from small, innovative task orders to marquee
mission-focused programs. In fiscal year 2025, Booz Allen expects
its total cyber revenue to reach between $2.5 and $2.8 billion,
representing nearly a quarter of the company’s total projected FY25
revenue.
“The cybersecurity market is as complex, dynamic, and
fast-growing as ever,” said Brad Medairy, executive vice president
and leader of Booz Allen’s national cyber business. “This is driven
by strategic competition and rapid technological advances that
create hyperconnectivity and an expanding, target-rich attack
surface that the nation’s adversaries view as one battlespace. Booz
Allen monitors adversarial techniques, technologies, and tactics to
help clients anticipate evolving threats and deploy new solutions
capable of creating meaningful impact within critical cyber
missions.”
Using a comprehensive view of the cyber landscape and adversary
insights, Booz Allen analyzes how trends translate into demand for
advanced cyber solutions and has identified four growth vectors in
the cyber market. The first is maintaining U.S. strategic advantage
in the cyber domain. As nation-state actors have become more
advanced, aggressive, and persistent, sustaining information
dominance through both offensive and defensive cyber missions is
paramount to national security.
The second is transforming cyber defense by applying zero trust
and artificial intelligence. Zero trust assumes a network or
devices on it have already been compromised, and re-tools network,
authorization, and device architectures to this new mindset. The
shift to zero trust complements rapid AI adoption, which is needed
to accelerate adversary detection with enhanced speed and scale.
Booz Allen is well positioned for growth given the company’s
leadership in implementing zero trust at scale for the U.S.
government and as the number one provider of AI solutions to the
federal government.
The third growth vector is securing the physical world. From
military bases to civilian critical infrastructure, the physical
world is hyperconnected and software defined. Making systems
smarter and connected delivers value while driving efficiency, but
it also significantly increases the attack surface and risk. To
address these challenges, Booz Allen leverages its world-class
operational technology lab for solutioning at scale across the
federal and commercial markets and supports clients with adopting
zero trust for cyber-physical systems.
The fourth growth vector is preparing for a post-quantum world.
Advances in quantum computing introduce new methods capable of
breaking the complex mathematical problems underpinning widely
deployed public-key cryptography, presenting significant threats to
safeguarding warfighter operations. This will have major
implications for national security, rapidly rendering current
encryption technologies and the integrity of many currently used
security credential standards vulnerable to exploitation. As a
leader in quantum information science and technology, Booz Allen
helps clients anticipate changes to cyber infrastructure, prototype
new cryptographic solutions, and design strategies for
cryptographic agility to properly prepare for quantum computers’
impact on network security.
