Rancher Government Solutions and Kasm Technologies Announce Strategic Partnership to Modernize Government Virtual and Containerized Desktop Infrastructure
WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 6, 2025-- Rancher Government Solutions (RGS), the leader in secure Kubernetes management for the U.S. Government, today announced a strategic partnership with Kasm Technologies , a pioneer in modern virtual and containerized desktop infrastructure (VDI/CDI). Together, RGS and Kasm are delivering a cloud-native, Kubernetes-powered workspace solution purpose-built to meet the mission-critical demands of government and defense organizations. This press release features multimedia. View the full release here: This partnership brings together RGS's industry-leading open-source Kubernetes stack with Kasm Workspaces' web-native VDI/CDI platform — offering a scalable, secure, and cost-effective alternative to legacy hypervisor-based solutions like VMware and Citrix. 'Government agencies can no longer afford to rely on legacy VDI platforms that are costly, complex, and vulnerable,' said Ryan Lewis, CEO of Rancher Government Solutions. 'Our partnership with Kasm Technologies provides a modern, cloud-native solution that delivers operational simplicity, zero-trust security, and true multi-cloud flexibility.' The RGS-Kasm solution redefines VDI/CDI for government use-cases, empowering agencies to securely deliver virtual desktops and applications across on-premises, hybrid, cloud, and air-gapped environments — without endpoint agents or proprietary hardware requirements. 'Together, we are transforming workspace delivery for federal agencies,' said Justin Travis, CEO of Kasm Technologies. 'By combining our web-native VDI platform with Rancher's secure Kubernetes stack, we are enabling government organizations to operate with greater agility, security, and cost efficiency — wherever their mission takes them.' This joint solution is already gaining traction with U.S. government customers seeking alternatives to costly legacy VDI platforms, especially in the wake of rising zero-trust mandates, modernization initiatives and increasing concerns about vendor lock-in. With out-of-the-box compliance for FIPS 140-2, NIST 800 controls, and DISA STIG guidelines, the RGS-Kasm solution enables agencies to meet federal security mandates while delivering modern workspace experiences to mission users anywhere in the world. Key solution benefits include: Ironclad Security: Zero-trust architecture with workload isolation and defense-grade controls. No Vendor Lock-In: Freedom from proprietary hypervisor licensing models. Scalable Anywhere: Operate in disconnected, low-bandwidth, or classified environments. Lower Total Cost of Ownership: Leverage existing hardware, reduce licensing fees, and simplify operations. Unified Management: Centralized control of Kubernetes clusters, virtual machines, and VDI/CDI environments through the RGS Manager.

Rancher Government and Sequoia Partner to Strengthen Kubernetes Security and Software Supply Chain for Federal, Classified Environments
WASHINGTON, February 11, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Rancher Government Solutions (RGS), the leader in Kubernetes management for government agencies, and Sequoia Holdings, LLC., a trusted expert in DevSecOps and secure workload migration, today announced a strategic partnership to enhance software supply chain security, classified workload deployments, and Kubernetes management for the Department of Defense (DOD), Intelligence Community (IC), and federal civilian agencies. This collaboration integrates Rancher Government Carbide, an end-to-end solution for zero-trust software supply chain security, with Sequoia's Combine platform, a "digital twin" environment that enables secure and seamless software validation for high-side deployments. The partnership ensures that government agencies and ecosystem technology partners can develop, test, and optimize their applications in an unclassified environment before deploying into classified networks, reducing risk and enhancing mission readiness. "Rancher Government Solutions is committed to providing government customers with secure, scalable Kubernetes environments that meet the highest security standards," said Brandon Gulla, CTO of Rancher Government Solutions. "By combining our Kubernetes management and Carbide's software supply chain security with Sequoia's Combine platform, we're enabling agencies to confidently deploy applications into classified environments while ensuring zero-trust protection from development to deployment." Sequoia's Combine platform plays a critical role in overcoming the four major challenges of deploying workloads in classified environments including: Access Control and Identity Management, Service Parity and Endpoint Emulation, Air-Gapped Networking, and Secure Software Development. Access Control & Identity Management – Navigating unique authentication policies across different agencies. Service Parity & Endpoint Emulation – Ensuring that workloads built in unclassified environments function correctly in high-side environments. Air-Gapped Networking – Managing software dependencies in isolated, classified networks. Secure Software Deployment – Validating and testing mission-critical software before deployment to ensure operational readiness. "Sequoia Combine is an essential capability for agencies and partners moving workloads into classified environments," said John Schnelle, Principal Solutions Architect at Sequoia. "By integrating Combine with RGS's Kubernetes management and Carbide supply chain security, we're providing a trusted, end-to-end solution that enables government customers to accelerate secure DevSecOps without risk or delay." Key Benefits of the Partnership: End-to-End Software Supply Chain Security – Rancher Government Carbide provides zero-trust enforcement, ensuring that only validated and trusted code enters government environments. Seamless Classified Workload Deployments – Sequoia Combine enables real-world emulation of classified environments, reducing errors and mission risk. Optimized Air-Gapped Kubernetes Operations – Secure Kubernetes management for DOD and IC environments, ensuring compliance with STIG and cybersecurity mandates. Multi-Cloud and On-Prem Integration – Secure, scalable solutions across AWS, Azure, Oracle, and on-prem environments. This strategic partnership empowers government agencies, intelligence organizations, and ecosystem partners to confidently navigate the unique security challenges of classified DevSecOps while eliminating the risks of unvalidated software deployment.
