Nooks is a veteran-owned company focused on democratizing access to secure, accredited facilities—often referred to as Sensitive Compartmented Information Facilities (SCIFs)—through a Classified-Infrastructure-as-a-Service model. Its ready-to-use spaces allow defense startups, primes, and government teams to collaborate without the cost and time of building bespoke secure infrastructure. The firm has already established footholds in Arlington, VA, Colorado Springs, CO, and El Segundo, CA, with plans to expand to “millions of square feet” of modern SCIF infrastructure nationwide by re-activating under-utilized office buildings. Nooks is also integrating advanced technologies and process streamlining via the U.S. Air Force’s STRATFI program and a DARPA Prospero contract, underscoring government demand for its offering. Backers believe the platform can dramatically reduce cost and accelerate timelines across the national security ecosystem. The newly raised capital positions Nooks to accelerate build-outs, broaden geographic coverage, and deepen partnerships with defense primes and agencies. While no revenue or user metrics were disclosed, the company’s traction with marquee defense customers and investors signals strong market validation.
