Anthropic brings Claude to civilian US agencies as Pentagon fight drags on
The Decoder · rss · 2026-10-01
Anthropic is now offering Claude for Government to US federal and state civilian agencies. The platform runs in a FedRAMP High environment, the strictest US cloud security level, with enterprise-grade features, pay-as-you-go billing with fixed spending caps, and per-department budgets. The Pentagon won't use it, as it still classifies Anthropic as a supply-chain risk amid the ongoing dispute over usage limits.
