Modernize Government Data Discovery, Compliance and AI Readiness

Lightning IQ helps public sector organizations gain fast, actionable visibility into large volumes of unstructured data across government storage environments. Agencies are under increasing pressure to manage sensitive records, reduce data risk, respond to legal requests, control storage costs and prepare trusted data for AI initiatives. Lightning IQ scans, indexes and analyzes agency data without requiring large-scale data movement, giving teams a clear view of what data exists, where it lives, who owns it and what risk it may contain.

For federal, state, local and education organizations, Lightning IQ supports mission-critical data discovery, compliance readiness, records response, archive optimization and AI data preparation. Agencies can identify sensitive information, reduce redundant or obsolete data, maintain searchable access to inactive user archives and create cleaner data pipelines for downstream analytics or AI use cases. Through Carahsoft, Lightning IQ gives government customers a practical path to modernize data governance, improve security posture and accelerate mission outcomes.
