Cyware Texas Cyber Command
A threat detected in one Texas county can inform the defense of the next. This solution brief shows how the Cyware Intelligence Actioning Platform creates a direct, machine-to-machine connection between Texas public sector organizations and the TXCC Cyber Threat Intelligence Center. As an add-on to your existing firewalls, SIEM, and EDR tools, it automates threat intelligence sharing and response.

How does Cyware support the TXCC mission for Texas critical infrastructure?
Cyware helps Texas Cyber Command (TXCC) and covered stakeholders strengthen cyber resilience by acting as the technical fabric that connects local entities directly with the TXCC Cyber Threat Intelligence Center (CTIC) Hub.
Instead of each county, city, or higher education institution defending in isolation, Cyware enables a unified defense across the state where a threat detected in one area can quickly inform protections in others.
Key ways Cyware supports the TXCC mission include:
- Statewide connectivity: Native, bi-directional integration with the TXCC CTIC for real-time intelligence sharing and coordinated response.
- Unified intel exchange: Automatic ingestion and normalization of threat data from TXCC, sector ISACs (e.g., MS-ISAC, K12SIX), and internal tools.
- Aligned capabilities: Local organizations maintain feature parity with the TXCC CTIC Hub, keeping them in step with the state’s latest cybersecurity capabilities.
- Dedicated Texas environment: A Texas multi-tenant Intel Operations environment supports secure, sovereign handling of Texas public sector data.
The result is a more synchronized statewide posture where TXCC’s vision for protecting critical infrastructure is reinforced by practical, automated connections at the local level.
What does Cyware change for local cybersecurity operations in Texas?
Cyware is designed to help local Texas teams streamline operations, reduce manual work, and make better use of existing security investments—without a disruptive rip-and-replace project.
Operational benefits include:
- Add-on to existing tools: Cyware’s Public Intelligence Actioning Platform plugs into your current firewalls and security stack as an add-on, rather than replacing them.
- Over 400 native connectors: With 400+ native integrations, Cyware can connect to a wide range of security tools for automated actions and data exchange.
- AI-generated playbook automation: AI-driven playbooks help automate repetitive tasks and orchestrate response across tools, which can ease staffing and workload challenges.
- Pragmatic AI support: AI-assisted features summarize threat bulletins and extract actionable indicators, allowing analysts to focus more on decisions and less on formatting.
- Future playbook sharing: In Q1 2027, intelligence operations playbooks are planned to be shareable across all covered Texas stakeholders on the Cyware platform, further supporting coordinated defense.
- Workforce readiness support: RSOC-trained analysts familiar with Cyware workflows help reduce onboarding time and strengthen day-to-day operations.
For teams with limited staff or fragmented tools, Cyware helps reimagine operations from manual, ticket-driven work to more automated, intelligence-driven workflows.
How can Texas public sector entities procure Cyware and manage cost?
Cyware has aligned its procurement model and pricing to fit how Texas public sector organizations typically buy technology.
Procurement and contracting:
- Cyware is available through the Texas State DIR Contract via partner Carahsoft, which helps streamline purchasing and compliance.
- This alignment with the standard Texas purchasing framework is intended to support rapid deployment across agencies and districts.
Pricing and packaging:
- State-specific pricing: Texas entities have access to pre-negotiated special pricing, designed to minimize cost and reduce the need for lengthy one-off negotiations.
- Scalable packages: Tiered offerings allow organizations—from large state agencies to mid-sized school districts—to start with core intelligence sharing and scale toward more advanced orchestration as their maturity grows.
Support and infrastructure:
- U.S.-based support: Cyware is U.S.-headquartered, with all support delivered by U.S. citizens within the United States.
- Sovereign Texas environment: A dedicated Texas multi-tenant Intel Operations environment supports secure handling of Texas public sector data across all TXCC covered stakeholders.
For many organizations, this combination of DIR-based procurement, state-specific pricing, and U.S.-based support makes it easier to justify and operationalize a statewide-aligned cyber intelligence capability.
