A decade ago, the Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) Program put agencies on the right path with critical investments in identity and access automation, but technology hasn’t stood still. Today, the Federal Zero Trust Strategy aims to accelerate cyber maturity throughout the government and secure our nation’s future. At the same time, relentless innovation in Artificial Intelligence is changing the game for attackers and d...

And with the increased use of remote computing, the cyber attack surface grows as more edge devices are added to networks. Creating a zero trust environment holds a lot of promise to provide significantly improved cybersecurity. In th...

The cybersecurity slogan for zero trust is a simple one: Never trust, always verify. This slogan fits into the Department of Defense mindset, which is always focused on how to reduce risk, but it’s a challenge to apply it to the federal government’s largest agency. An important tool in pursuing zero trust is to implement microsegmentation – partitioning a network into small, isolated sections to reduce the attack surface in e...

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...
