FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
bladestack.io Named Finalist in 2025 Moxie Awards, Recognizing Bold Innovation Across the D.C. Metro
McLean, VA – May 21st, 2025 — bladestack.io, the first and only Advisory-Focused FedRAMP 3PAO and leader in absurdly technical cloud-security consulting, announced today that it has been selected as a finalist in the 2025 Moxie Awards. Presented annually, the Moxie Awards honor organizations that exemplify boldness, ingenuity, and a “something-extra” spirit in the Greater Washington business community.
“Moxie is all about courage, creativity, and delivering game-changing impact,” said Bhanu Jagasia, Founder, CEO & Chief Technology Samurai of bladestack.io. “Every Cyber Samurai on our team embodies that ethos—whether we’re streamlining FedRAMP with bladeRAMP, advising on AI security, or mentoring the next generation of cloud defenders. Being named a finalist validates our mission to keep disrupting the status quo.”
“This recognition proves that you don’t need a massive headcount to make a massive impact,” added Kris Martel, President & Chief Security Samurai. “Our 12-samurai crew out-innovates and out-executes because we marry absurd technical depth with an unshakeable culture. The Moxie Awards spotlight the power of that combination.”
Why bladestack.io Stands Out
Advisory-Only FedRAMP 3PAO: Purely independent guidance—no audits, no conflicts.
Absurdly Technical DNA: From Rev. 5 readiness playbooks to zero-touch inboundary automation, the firm translates complexity into clear wins.
People-First Culture: A 97.63 percent employee-engagement score and a team that “slays cyber by day, debates anime arcs by night.”
Community Impact: Ongoing sponsorships with Empowered Mums, workforce-development initiatives, and local tech-talent mentoring.
“Moxie Award finalists elevate the region with bold ideas and execution,” said Katie Jordan, 2025 Moxie Award Chair. “bladestack.io clearly exemplifies that ‘something extra’ we set out to celebrate.”
A complete list of finalists is available at https://moxieaward.com/finalists/. Winners will be announced at the Moxie Awards Gala later this year.
