Identity is Key to Securing DoD Supply Chain
U.S. military leaders have grave concerns about security within their technology supply chain. Digital systems are inherently vulnerable to some level of cybersecurity risk. When those systems support national security, the risk is heightened and magnified.
The Defense Department is actively working to strengthen cyber resilience in its supply chain partners and across the Defense Industrial Base, or DIB. It’s raising the bar for aerospace and defense contractors through the continual evolution of CMMC, the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification.
Identity and access management stand at the core of the cyber resilience effort. In order to meet the challenge of CMMC, defense contractors can modernize their identity and access strategies, leveraging cloud and as-a-service offerings with an emphasis on Zero Trust.
