Checkmarx and Carahsoft Partner to Deliver Prevention-First Approach to Application Security for Government Agencies
Collaboration Enables Public Sector Organizations to Better Protect Themselves Against Cyber Attacks
PARAMUS, N.J. and RESTON, Va., June 10, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Checkmarx and Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider®, today announced a partnership. Under the agreement, Carahsoft will serve as Checkmarx’s Master Government Aggregator®, making the company’s application security solutions available to the Public Sector through Carahsoft’s reseller partners and NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V, E&I Cooperative Services Contract and The Quilt contracts.
“Partnering with Carahsoft enables us to expand access to our application security platform across the Public Sector,” said Jonathan Kozimor, VP of Channel Americas at Checkmarx. “Carahsoft’s deep expertise in Government procurement and its extensive reseller ecosystem make the company an ideal partner to help agencies strengthen their application security posture. Together, we can empower organizations to integrate security seamlessly into modern development environments, reduce risk across the software lifecycle and accelerate the delivery of secure, mission-critical applications.”
Checkmarx delivers a unified, AI-native application security platform designed to secure modern software development across the agentic development lifecycle (ADLC)—from code creation through runtime. The platform consolidates multiple security capabilities, including static and dynamic application security testing (SAST and DAST), software composition analysis (SCA), API security, container and infrastructure-as-code security and application security posture management (ASPM), into a single, integrated solution. By correlating risk signals across the ADLC, Checkmarx provides real-time visibility into vulnerabilities and prioritizes the most critical risks. Its agentic AI-driven capabilities embed security directly into developer workflows, enabling continuous detection, automated remediation guidance and policy enforcement without slowing development velocity.
Built to address the increasing complexity of AI-driven and cloud-native environments, the platform helps organizations eliminate fragmented tooling and replace it with a centralized, always-on security layer. This unified approach enables teams to reduce noise, focus on exploitable risks and remediate issues earlier in the development process, minimizing rework and improving overall software resilience. With seamless integration into existing DevOps ecosystems and real-time governance dashboards, Checkmarx supports secure, scalable innovation while ensuring continuous compliance, visibility and control across even the most complex application environments.
“We are pleased to partner with Checkmarx to bring its innovative application security platform to the Public Sector,” said Brian O’Donnell, Vice President of Cybersecurity Solutions at Carahsoft. “As agencies continue to modernize their development environments, it is critical they have access to solutions that embed security throughout the software lifecycle. Together with our reseller partners, we are enabling Government organizations to adopt a proactive, integrated approach to application security—helping them reduce risk, protect sensitive data and accelerate the delivery of secure, mission-critical applications.”
Checkmarx’s application security solutions are available through Carahsoft’s SEWP V contracts NNG15SC03B and NNG15SC27B, E&I Contract #EI00063~2021MA and The Quilt Master Service Agreement Number MSA05012019-F.
