Paragon Cyber Solutions, LLC, a veteran, woman-owned information security company, has been awarded the Historically Underutilized Business Zone (HUBZone) certification by the U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA). The HUBZone program certification was established to provide federal contracting assistance for qualified small businesses located in historically underutilized business zones in an effort to increase employment opportunities, investment, and economic development in such areas.
“I am very pleased that Paragon Cyber Solutions has been certified by the SBA HUBZone program,” said Courtney H. Jackson, Chief Executive Officer and Owner of Paragon Cyber Solutions. “Having the HUBZone designation makes us eligible for specific set-asides that will allow us to deliver best in class cybersecurity services to government agencies while promoting local economic and employment growth.” The current target set-aside award for HUBZone businesses is 3% for all federal agencies. As one of few cybersecurity companies with this certification, Paragon Cyber Solutions is positioned to enable federal agencies to meet this procurement target, while positively impacting economic development in the local community.
