Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH) announced that its venture capital arm, Booz Allen Ventures, has made a strategic investment in Corsha, a cybersecurity company that specializes in securing machine-to-machine communication for critical infrastructure.
Corsha operates as a Machine Identity Provider, using multi-factor authentication to protect operational technology systems. The company works with partners including the U.S. Air Force and employs behavioral analytics to detect unusual patterns and potential cyber threats in defense manufacturing and other critical infrastructure sectors.
"The physical world is increasingly hyperconnected and software defined, leaving military installations, civilian critical infrastructure, and other hubs of economic and national security at risk of cyber disruption," said David Forbes, director of cyber-physical defense at Booz Allen.
Through this partnership, Booz Allen will support Corsha's expansion of its research and development operations, scaling of AI and machine learning capabilities, and advancement of operations in critical manufacturing environments.
The investment represents the 16th strategic investment by Booz Allen Ventures since the launch of its $100 million corporate venture capital fund. The fund focuses on early-stage companies developing dual-use commercial technologies.
Booz Allen reported revenue of $12.0 billion for the 12 months ended March 31, 2025, and employs approximately 35,800 people globally. The company provides AI and cybersecurity services to the federal government.
