In the realm of government cybersecurity, the Zero Trust framework stands as a beacon of defense against evolving threats. Central to its efficacy are the principles of identity and access management, which redefine traditional security paradigms. Zero Trust advocates for perpetual verification of users, devices, and resources, emphasizing a “never trust, always verify” mantra. Identity verification, facilitated by multifactor auth...

Our digital world is more expansive than ever before, giving access to unprecedented capabilities for our business, government, and personal use. As digital transformation accelerates, the risks associated with cyberattacks grow and affect every aspect of modern business, from customer service to government operations to smart infrastructure. Cyber or Business resilience must be a critical component of all security strategies — yet it is...

In the rapidly evolving landscape of cybersecurity, the Zero Trust model has emerged as a cornerstone principle, dictating that trust must never be implicit and must be continually earned. This webinar, “Operationalizing Zero Trust: Securing Containers in Runtime,” delves into the practical applications of Zero Trust architecture within live container workloads, an area fraught with potential vulnerabilities and attack vectors. Joi...

In an era where cyber threats are increasingly sophisticated, the need for robust cybersecurity strategies in government IT departments is more pressing than ever. These threats are continuously evolving, leveraging new technologies and exploiting vulnerabilities in innovative ways. As a result, there is an urgent need for IT sectors to adapt and enhance their cybersecurity strategies. This adaptation isn’t just about implementing new te...

In today’s world, we’re constantly hearing about new tech terms and breakthroughs, from artificial intelligence (AI) to Zero Trust security. Government organizations are always trying to keep up, looking for quicker and smarter ways to get things done and keep their information safe. AI has been a big help, making tasks faster to complete than ever before. But, this progress comes with its own set of questions. What are the downsid...

These solutions embody the principles of the NIST 800-207 Zero Trust Architecture, offering a multifaceted approach to cybersecurity. iboss Zero Trust SSE: By replacing legacy VPN with ZTNA, legacy proxy appliances with Security Service Edge, and legacy VDI with Browser Isolation, the iboss Zero Trust SSE en...

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...

Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Memorandum M-22-09 requires “agencies to achieve specific zero trust security goals” and designates “Identity” as the first of five pillars from CISA’s zero trust maturity model. Additionally, M-22-09 provides specific actions for the Identity pillar that include, employing centralized identity management systems that integrate with agency applications and platforms; leveragin...

ATARC’s Zero Trust Integration Lab (ZTIL) aims to showcase technical architectures and Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) hardware and software solutions, support proofs of concept for integrated solution sets by incorporating multiple vendors’ products, and implement Zero Trust solutions in a simulated production environment. Each demonstration team will address all aspects of Zero Trust in a provided scenario set crossing all...

With all of the components of Zero Trust, there are various models and theories that an organization can use to strengthen their cybersecurity practices. The CISA Zero Trust Maturity Model and the DoD Zero Trust Strategy are only two examples of frameworks that provide guidance on implementing Zero Trust security principles within an organization. Both models emphasize the steps it takes to achieve total Zero Trust, but they differ in some of...
