What is Good Security?
Good security is proactive, not reactive. It stays ahead of evolving threats, addresses risks efficiently, and scales to meet your agency’s hybrid work environment. The challenge? Adopting a Zero Trust culture and maintaining a Zero Trust mindset.
Benefits of a Good Security Solution
Improved Data Protection
With automated security monitoring and risk-based access controls, your agency’s data is limited and time-bound, making it more difficult for threat actors to access sensitive information.
Greater Network Visibility
Gain full visibility into exactly who or what accesses your network. That way, you know the location, time, and applications involved in all access requests.
Secure Your Remote Employees
In today’s hybrid workplace, firewalls are no longer effective now that workers are spread across the nation. With a Zero Trust security architecture, access control is adaptive and identity-based, giving your agency real-time protection for workers, wherever they are located.
Support Ongoing Compliance Needs
Meeting compliance standards is crucial for many federal agencies. Evaluating and logging every access request on your network creates a simplified audit experience with a contiguous evidence chain.

Endpoint security systems are designed to quickly detect, analyze, block, and contain attacks in progress and includes continuous monitoring, rapid time to detection, and system integration. Endpoint security solutions protect endpoints such as mobile devices, desktops, laptops, and even medical and IoT devices. Endpoints are a popular attack vector, and the goal of an attacker is to not only compromise the endpoint but also to gain access to the network and the valuable assets within.
Multi-Factor Authentication is defined not just by user identity but also by parameters such as device, location, time stamp, recent activity, and description of the request. These complex authentications are more secure than 2 Factor.
