Cybersecurity is akin to the 20th century Cold War. On the one hand, bad actors – whether nation-states or common criminals – are constantly searching for new vulnerabilities and creating new tools to attack them. On the other, all government agencies and private sector companies are trying to remain alert and find new ways to fend off those attacks. Among the innovative ways agencies are responding to the ever-evolving threat land...

Advances in telecommunications capabilities are a major driver in Department of Defense programs. From creating secure private networks that U.S. military forces and their partners can use in conflicts to integrating 5G capabilities to create “smart” warehouses to significant improvements in supply chain logistics, DoD has been committed to investing in rethinking the meaning and applications of communications. One of the next step...

Insider Risk Programs have continued to evolve naturally over the past 20 years. They have grown exponentially beyond the traditional lens of trying to identify spies through cyber-focused data exfiltration events. Today, Insider Risk Programs have expanded to include internal HR, legal, and compliance stakeholders within organizations and have expanded security beyond strictly physical and cyber domains to now include analysts, investigators,...

Communications security is one of the foremost priorities in any battlespace. This is one reason the Department of Defense is keen on building out 5G capabilities, because of its ability to create secure private networks anywhere it is deployed. But 5G’s capabilities extend beyond creating private networks on the fly. Its ability to handle massive amounts of data makes it a crucial component in real-time data collection from all sources,...

The central premise of Office of Management and Budget Memo 22-09 laying out the Federal Zero Trust Strategy is that no actor, system, network, or service operating outside or within the security perimeter is trusted. Controlling access is everything. This makes defining identity crucial – not just for people, but for every device of any kind that tries to access an agency system. The strongest form of identity management is attribute-ba...
