Beyond IT compliance, cloud security is now the backbone of civilian agency resilience, national defense, and warfighter safety, as cloud environments become increasingly complex.Key takeawaysFor the Department of War (DoW), cloud security is an IT concern and a requirement for operational readiness and national security.Achieving a mature zero trust architecture requires deep, real-time visibility across seven critical pillars, including users, data, and workloads.FedRAMP High and IL5 authorizations provide the rigorous vendor validation that federal agencies need to ensure the protection of their controlled unclassified information (CUI) and the support of their tactical edge deployments.Tenable One Cloud Exposure, which now has FedRAMP High and IL5 authorizations, delivers a unified cloud native application protection platform (CNAPP) approach within a strictly regulated environment. As part of the Tenable One Exposure Management Platform, it helps teams to visualize and mitigate risk in federal cloud ecosystems without compromising strict data isolation requirements.The transformation of federal cybersecurity: A new mission frontierIn nearly two decades of working with and within civilian, Department of War (DoW), and intelligence community customers, Tenable has watched the conversation around cloud move through several phases.
