ITDG, KBR unit announce partnership on security and cyber services
Insider Threat Defense Group and KBR Commercial Security & Cyber Services announced a partnership to offer integrated security, compliance and insider risk services to government and commercial clients.
Insider Threat Defense Group said it has formed a strategic partnership with KBR Commercial Security & Cyber Services to combine physical security, cybersecurity, compliance and insider risk management.
Insider Threat Defense Group (ITDG) announced the deal in a PR Newswire release dated Aug. 11, 2026, saying the partnership is aimed at government and commercial clients. The companies said they want to package security services that cover both physical and digital risks.
The release said the companies want to avoid treating protections as isolated or added only after an incident. Instead, they said they plan to offer a coordinated approach to facilities, data, employees and computer systems.
ITDG said the partnership will include managed security services such as physical security, personnel security and fractional facility security officers. It will also cover CMMC consulting, compliance consulting for NIST, ISO, HIPAA, TISAX and SOC 2 Type 1 and Type 2, plus insider risk management and IRM program training and consulting.
The release said those services are being offered to U.S. government agencies, the Department of War, defense contractors, intelligence community agencies and commercial enterprises. It also described KBR Commercial Security & Cyber Services as a global provider of technology-enabled solutions supporting national security, defense and space missions, and said it has more than 36,000 employees and 60 locations worldwide.
ITDG said it has provided insider risk management expertise since 2014 and has assisted more than 700 organizations with developing, implementing, managing, evaluating and optimizing IRMPs. The company said more than 1,000 people have attended its training courses. It said its IRM Program 360 Framework & Assessment Methodology underpins that work.
The release also said the partnership is intended to strengthen expertise in protecting facilities, financial assets, employees, data and computer networks. It said insider threat incidents can cause financial damages in the millions and billions, though it did not provide supporting data in the release.
The companies said the services are available now through the new partnership.
