Cyber adversaries will stop at nothing to compromise any military systems, data, and missions. That’s why the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) is adopting zero trust—a security framework that presumes networks are compromised and counters threats by design. All DOD organizations are expected to achieve “Target Level” Zero Trust Architecture by 2027. This requires multiple security functions to identify, authenticate, and authorize users or devices based on posture to securely connect to applications. As a result, the DOD turned to Booz Allen and Versa Networks to develop a security hardened Zero Trust Edge approach that will transform the DOD’s infrastructure…
