Intelligent, US-Sovereign Backup-as-a-Service
Jeskell Systems and Cobalt Iron bring automation, analytics, and zero-access security together in a Federal-ready cloud built for mission resilience.
Automated, Mission-Ready Data Protection
Federal agencies face mounting data challenges including flat budgets, shrinking IT staff, and relentless cyber threats. Traditional backup systems can no longer keep pace with mission requirements or evolving zero trust mandates.
Cobalt Iron’s Backup-as-a-Service (BaaS), delivered by Jeskell Systems, transforms Federal data protection through AI-driven automation, analytics, and secure U.S.-sovereign hosting. Purpose-built for government workloads and hosted in a Department of Defense (DoD) data center, this fully managed solution eliminates manual administration, unpredictable costs, and recovery delays.
With more than 35 years of Federal IT expertise, Jeskell simplifies modernization by integrating Cobalt Iron’s advanced capabilities within proven infrastructure frameworks, including IBM’s resilient storage technologies. The result is a unified, compliant backup environment that strengthens mission continuity while reducing operational complexity.
What the Solution Delivers
Federal agencies require data protection that is automated, compliant, and secure at every layer. Cobalt Iron Backup-as-a-Service, delivered by Jeskell Systems, combines intelligent automation, analytics, and zero-access security to simplify operations while meeting the strictest Federal requirements.
Automated Resilience
AI and analytics-driven automation continuously manages updates, monitoring, reporting, and ransomware detection to maintain operational readiness without manual intervention.
Zero Access Security
The hermetically sealed vault eliminates insider threats and social engineering exposure by removing all human logins, ensuring data remains completely untouchable.
US Sovereignty
All code development, hosting, and support are performed exclusively by U.S. citizens in Richardson, Texas, ensuring compliance with Federal data sovereignty and security mandates.
Operational Efficiency
Backup operations that once required multiple administrators are now fully automated, allowing agencies to reallocate valuable resources to mission priorities.
Predictable Costs
Flat-rate pricing with no ingress, egress, WAN, or change control fees enables complete cost transparency, with agencies paying only for landed data after deduplication.
Scalable Integration
The solution deploys rapidly and integrates seamlessly with existing infrastructure, including IBM Spectrum Protect, FlashSystem, and tape environments, to modernize Federal data protection without disruption.
Evolve From Zero Trust to Zero Access
Federal agencies cannot rely on trust alone when it comes to data protection. The Zero Access Vault, designed by Cobalt Iron and delivered by Jeskell Systems, eliminates the possibility of human intrusion by removing all logins and administrator access.
Every packet of data is encrypted individually, and all communication occurs through a secure, machine-controlled process over a hard-wired connection. This design makes data impossible to alter, reassemble, or steal, ensuring mission-critical backups remain immutable, compliant, and ready when needed.
Why It Matters for Federal Agencies
Backup and recovery have long consumed time, personnel, and budgets across Federal IT environments. Manual administration, fragmented tools, and unpredictable costs have made maintaining resilience increasingly difficult.
Cobalt Iron Backup-as-a-Service, delivered by Jeskell Systems, eliminates that complexity through automation, analytics, and US-sovereign infrastructure. Agencies gain modern, zero-access data protection that strengthens cyber resilience and supports Federal zero trust initiatives… all without adding staff or overhead.
With Jeskell’s 35 years of Federal experience, this managed service provides a predictable, secure, and fully compliant backup environment that protects mission-critical data while allowing agencies to focus on what matters most: the mission itself.
