Parsons subsidiary to receive $500M Defense contract

Sealing Technologies, a Maryland subsidiary of Chantilly-based Fortune 1000 defense contractor Parsons, announced this week that it has received an intent-to-award notification from the United States Cyber Command to begin production on Joint Cyber Hunt Kits, which support proactive threat detection and other cyber defense operations.

The three-year contract has a ceiling value of $500 million, SealingTech announced Wednesday.

The deployable kits incorporate commercial technologies and open-source software that allow cyber defense teams to identify threats in defense networks and respond accordingly. The product will benefit the U.S. Cyber Command, one of the Department of Defense‘s 11 unified combatant commands that is responsible for unifying the direction of military cyber operations and protecting DOD information networks.

Parsons acquired Maryland-based SealingTech in 2023 for $200 million to bolster its cyber operations services for the defense and intelligence communities. The company said this new contract continues SealingTech’s work of more than a decade to aid the DOD with defensive cyber tools.

“Parsons is dedicated to providing exceptional, mission-ready solutions that enable the U.S. military to maintain its position as the world’s most formidable and lethal fighting force,” Parsons President of Defense and Intelligence Mike Kushin said in a statement. “The company’s acquisition of SealingTech and their JCHK success demonstrates our combined vision to develop exquisite, agile technology that aligns with our customers’ needs and protects national security.”

In a statement, SealingTech Vice President and General Manager Jake Nelson said the collaboration with the U.S. Cyber Command advances next-generation defensive cyber capabilities that will strengthen the warfighters’ tactical advantage.

Parsons did not immediately return request for comment.

Founded in 1944, Parsons provides technology solutions in the defense, intelligence and critical infrastructure markets. It posted $6.4 billion in revenue in fiscal year 2025 and has more than 20,000 employees worldwide.
