In essence, Zero Trust transcends mere technological implementation; it embodies a profound cultural metamorphosis. This paradigm shift demands concerted teamwork, dismantling organizational silos, and instilling a pervasive culture of heightened security consciousness and vigilance across all echelons. Embracing Zero Trust entails more than fortifying our cybersecurity defenses; it’s about equipping our teams to confront the ever-shifting threat landscape with resilience and assurance. While departure from conventional practices may pose challenges, it’s an imperative step towards fortifying our digital resilience and safeguarding critical assets and data in an increasingly hostile cyber terrain.

#ZeroTrust is more than just a strategy; it should be an enterprise-wide goal. In support of the Department of Defense’s zero trust strategy, GSA created the DoD #ZTA Buyer’s Guide. #Gov agencies can use it to identify a range of GSA-offered solutions that align with DoD’s framework and help build a robust ZTA: www.gsa.gov/zta.

DOD Failing to Fix Critical Cybersecurity Gaps - We must do better! The U.S. Department of Defense still hasn't addressed critical cybersecurity gaps in its information technology business programs - two years after a government watchdog agency first urged the department to develop security strategies for each program. The GAO's annual assessment of the Pentagon's IT systems published Thursday says additional cybersecurity and reporting gaps exist across the department, including failures to track progress in software development and inadequate metrics for customer satisfaction. Program officials told the GAO they face significant challenges in establishing enhanced software development and cybersecurity processes, from leadership and staff turnover to unclear requirements and insufficient resources. The programs in question include critical IT investments, such as the DOD's Defense Travel System, an electronic procurement system used by the U.S. Navy, a global combat support system for the U.S. Marine Corps, and a Naval Air Systems Command Aviation Logistics Environment platform. The DOD is also investing in modernizing IT business platforms such as the department's healthcare management system and joint operational medicine information platform. #dod #cybersecurity #gao
