Workday Adaptive Planning Achieves FedRAMP Moderate Authorization to Support Federal Workforce and Budget Planning

Published

New Milestone Helps Federal Agencies Plan Workforce and Budgets in One Secure, Modern System

WASHINGTON, July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Workday Government, a wholly owned subsidiary of Workday, Inc. (NASDAQ: WDAY), the enterprise AI platform for HR, finance, and IT, today announced that Workday Adaptive Planning has achieved FedRAMP Authorization at the Moderate Impact Level. The authorization confirms that Workday Adaptive Planning meets the security and compliance standards required to handle sensitive, unclassified federal data, giving agencies a secure, compliant foundation for modern planning.

Federal agencies are under pressure to do more with less, manage costs, and maintain clear records of their decisions. Yet disconnected data, legacy systems, and manual spreadsheet work can make it hard to understand how organizational decisions affect the workforce. Workday Adaptive Planning helps agencies modernize planning by bringing workforce planning, budgeting, and forecasting together so agencies can plan with connected workforce and financial data.

“Federal agencies must align their people, funding, and priorities to deliver their missions effectively,” said Lynn Martin, general manager, Workday Government. “With FedRAMP Moderate authorization, Workday Adaptive Planning gives agencies the secure foundation they need to unify workforce and financial planning. This clarity allows leaders to evaluate trade-offs, allocate resources with impact, and prepare confidently for what lies ahead.”

With Workday Adaptive Planning, agencies can model and assess the workforce implications of organizational change, such as hiring freezes, budget reductions, or reorganizations, to understand the potential effects on headcount, costs, project timelines, and mission readiness. Agencies can also use workforce data to identify talent trends and skills gaps. Finance teams can evaluate competing program requests, allocate costs across funds and programs, monitor budgets throughout the procurement lifecycle, and identify potential overruns earlier. Built-in audit capabilities and FIPS 140-3 compliant security help agencies strengthen fiscal discipline, maintain compliance, and make faster, better-informed decisions.

“Federal agencies need a planning tool they can trust to protect their data and still move fast,” said Ben Pierce, general manager, Workday Adaptive Planning. “With FedRAMP authorization, Workday Adaptive Planning gives them a secure, modern way to make budgeting and workforce planning less painful and a lot more useful.”

As part of Workday Government Cloud, Workday Adaptive Planning works alongside Workday human capital management and financial solutions, helping agencies plan with connected data. By bringing planning into the same platform that powers HR and finance, Workday Government helps agencies move beyond systems that simply record work to a modern, connected foundation for planning safely and collaboratively.

Workday Adaptive Planning is expected to be available to Workday Government customers in early 2027.

Ontinue Wins Gold Stevie® Award for Advancing the Future of Managed Security Operations

Recognition Honors the Innovation Behind Ontinue’s Agentic SOC, Where AI Agents And Expert Cyber Defenders Work Together to Deliver Autonomous, Governed Security Operations

ZURICH, July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Ontinue, a leading MXDR partner providing nonstop managed security operations through its Agentic SOC, today announced it received a Gold Stevie® for Technology Excellence Award, recognizing the innovation behind its ION MXDR platform and Agentic SOC. The award was presented in the New Product of the Year – Information Technology (Cybersecurity) category, honoring Ontinue’s continued advancement of AI-powered security operations.

Ontinue was recognized for pioneering the Agentic SOC, a new operating model that treats security decision-making itself as software: governed, measurable, and built to scale with attackers who now operate at machine speed. Rather than layering AI onto existing workflows, Ontinue re-engineered its ION MXDR platform around a multi-agent architecture, with specialized agents spanning threat hunting, investigation, response, and posture hardening, that reason over each customer’s accumulated context and progressively take on more decision-making as trust is earned, while Ontinue’s Cyber Defenders retain governance and accountability throughout.

Ontinue defines an Agentic SOC as a security operations model in which software agents progressively assume responsibility for security decisions and actions, under continuous human governance, using accumulated context, policy, and learned behavior. In December 2024, this model went live in production for every ION MXDR customer, extending autonomous investigation to Tier 2-level incidents for the first time in the industry. The result is a platform that acts less like a tool and more like a team.

Ontinue’s Agentic SOC, by the numbers:

Autonomously investigates incidents within minutesCuts mean time to investigate by 50 percentResolves 99.5 percent of incidents without customer involvementDrives median response time for high-severity incidents under nine minutesPre-approves 97 percent of response actions, based on trust earned directly from customers

For Ontinue’s customers, that translates directly into business outcomes, such has stronger Secure Scores, security teams freed from alert fatigue, and hundreds of analyst hours returned to work that actually moves the business forward.

“The cybersecurity industry doesn’t need more AI features, it needs a fundamentally better way to operate security,” said Moritz Mann, Chief Executive Officer at Ontinue. “This recognition validates the work our teams have done over the past two years to transform AI from an assistant into a trusted operational capability. It’s recognition of an operating model that is already delivering measurable outcomes for customers every day.”

“We congratulate all of the winners in the third annual Stevie® Awards for Technology Excellence for their outstanding achievements,” said Stevie Awards President Maggie Miller. “Their innovations are helping shape the future of technology across every industry, and we look forward to celebrating their success on October 28.”

The Stevie Awards for Technology Excellence celebrate the remarkable accomplishments of individuals, teams, and organizations shaping the future of technology across all industry sectors. More than 700 nominations from organizations of all sizes in 37 nations and territories were submitted this year for consideration in a wide range of tech-related categories. More than 180 professionals worldwide participated in the judging process to select this year’s honorees.

Details about the Stevie Awards for Technology Excellence and the list of 2026 Stevie winners are available at http://Tech.StevieAwards.com.

About Ontinue
As a leading provider of AI-powered managed security operations, Ontinue is on a mission to give every organization the freedom to focus on what they do best; by making nonstop security excellence accessible, not just aspirational. By combining advanced AI with deep human expertise, Ontinue delivers managed security operations that are tailored to each organization’s unique environment, operational needs, and risk profile.

New Harris Poll and Ruth AI Study: 81% of Americans Would Let an AI Agent Handle Part of Their Job Search

Published

on

By

Nearly half would let AI negotiate their salary, while 76% have never heard that AI can provide biased career guidance

SAN FRANCISCO, July 23, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Artificial intelligence has become a mainstream source of career and financial advice for American workers, according to a national survey of 2,131 U.S. adults conducted by The Harris Poll in collaboration with Ruth AI, the AI career strategist built for women.

The full study, The Trust Gap, is available at https://ruthapp.ai/research and has already drawn coverage from Fast Company.

Nearly half of Americans (45%) have used an AI platform such as ChatGPT, Claude, or Gemini for career or work-related advice. That rises to 66% of Millennials and 63% of Gen Z. One in three U.S. adults has used AI for advice about money at work, including salary, raises, bonuses, or negotiating pay.

Americans are also increasingly willing to let AI act on their behalf. Eighty-one percent would be comfortable having an AI agent handle at least one part of a job search, climbing to 90% of Millennials. A majority would let AI search for jobs (67%), conduct pre-interview research (67%), update their resume (65%), or apply for jobs outright (55%). Nearly half would let AI negotiate their benefits (49%) or salary (47%).

Yet awareness of the technology’s documented limitations remains low. Three in four Americans (76%) had never heard that independent research has found AI can produce biased career and salary guidance. Seventy-two percent agree that AI can sound confident even when its advice turns out to be wrong.

“Americans are handing AI some of the most consequential decisions of their working lives, from the job search to the salary ask, while most have never heard that the guidance can carry bias,” said Valerie Chapman, founder and CEO of Ruth AI. “We are delegating faster than we are asking questions. The responsibility now falls on the people building AI to earn the trust users are already giving it.”

About the Survey

The survey was conducted online within the United States by The Harris Poll from June 11-13, 2026, among a nationally representative sample of 2,131 U.S. adults, including 420 Gen Z adults, 620 Millennials, 519 Gen X adults, and 572 Baby Boomers. Data were weighted to the U.S. general adult population. Some questions were asked only of respondents who had used AI for the relevant purpose. References to research on biased AI guidance refer to external academic research (Sorokovikova, Chizhov, Eremenko & Yamshchikov, 2025; arXiv:2506.10491) and are not findings measured by this survey.
