LeapXpert and Carahsoft Join Forces to Enhance Secure Messaging for Government Agencies

In a significant move aimed at enhancing communication within the public sector, LeapXpert, recognized as a leader in Governed Communication Intelligence, has partnered with Carahsoft Technology Corp. This collaboration is set to introduce advanced governed messaging solutions tailored for federal, state, and local government agencies. As part of the agreement, Carahsoft will act as LeapXpert's Master Government Aggregator, ensuring that the LeapXpert Communications Platform is accessible through its extensive network of resellers and several contracts, including The Interlocal Purchasing System (TIPS) and OMNIA Partners.

Government officials often rely on popular messaging platforms such as WhatsApp, Signal, iMessage, and SMS for their communications. While these channels have become integral for day-to-day operations, many agencies lack the necessary infrastructure to effectively capture and govern these conversations in compliance with regulations from the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) and the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). This gap poses challenges in accountability, impacting how public sector employees communicate versus how agencies can document these interactions.

The LeapXpert Communications Platform offers a solution by enabling secure communications across various consumer messaging channels while simultaneously capturing these interactions in real-time. This innovative technology not only ensures that conversations are stored in compliance with relevant policies but also allows organizations to govern discussions as they happen. LeapXpert has a proven track record, servicing hundreds of enterprise clients across 50 countries, particularly within the finance sector, government, and amongst companies listed in the Forbes Global 2000.

According to Avi Pardo, Co-Founder and Chief Business Officer of LeapXpert, federal employees have already begun using platforms like WhatsApp and Signal for official communications, creating a situation where critical conversation records are often stored on personal devices. "Until now, the record of these communications has lived on personal devices, outside the security systems that are designed to protect them," Pardo explained. He notes that the demand for secure communication solutions in government is rapidly growing, necessitating partnerships that can bridge this gap effectively. Carahsoft's established relationships with government agencies and its wide-reaching contractual agreements are key to expediting the integration of this necessary technology.

Brian O'Donnell, Vice President of Cybersecurity Solutions at Carahsoft, emphasized the necessity for government agencies to adopt secure, governed communication across the messaging channels already in use by their employees. He stated, "LeapXpert's Communications Platform offers a scalable approach for agencies to implement governed messaging throughout their organizations, adhering to federal security and compliance requirements. Together with our reseller partners, we are delivering mission-ready messaging security to the Public Sector."

LeapXpert's solutions are accessible through various contracts that Carahsoft holds, including the TIPS Contract #220105 and others. Interested parties can reach out to the Carahsoft team for more information or to explore the capabilities of the LeapXpert platform.
