McKeown was testifying before the Senate Armed Services Committee\u2019s cybersecurity subcommittee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The department has launched several pilot projects testing zero-trust concepts in the last two years and earlier this year the Defense Information Systems Agency and the NSA worked on zero-trust reference architectures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the Pentagon\u2019s CIO shop establishes the portfolio management office, it would be responsible for \u201cconsolidating\u201d talent from across the department, including network administration and cybersecurity experts, to manage \u201cthe complex task of moving the DODIN to this new cybersecurity construct,\u201d McKeown wrote in his testimony. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The office would also be responsible for a campaign about the benefits of zero trust and would share best practices within the department, mission partners, the defense industrial base and allies, he said in written testimony. The office would also be develop a \u201cstrategic roadmap\u201d for the department\u2019s move toward zero trust. Russ Goemaere, a spokesperson for the DoD, said the office would \u201caim\u201d to set up the portfolio office in the next six months. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">McKeown also highlighted the Air Force\u2019s Cloud One, its enterprise cloud, as a cloud-native zero trust environment and added that several DoD systems have migrated to that cloud environment. According to the McKeown, Cloud One implements all of the components of zero trust the DoD considers \u201cpillars\u201d: users; applications and workloads; devices; data; networks and infrastructure; visibility and analytics; and automation and orchestration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Moving to a zero-trust model in the department\u2019s cloud computing environments is critical given that cloud computing is central to the Pentagon\u2019s digital modernization strategy and the Defense Information Systems Agency future plans as the department\u2019s primary IT provider. DISA, in partnership with the DoD CIO, NSA and Cyber Command, is creating a zero trust lab to test zero-trust capabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As part of the department\u2019s push toward zero-trust, DISA is also working on a cloud-based internet isolation tool that allows users to remote browse the internet securely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">McKeown said the department is also taking another step toward zero-trust cybersecurity through a new enterprise-wide identity, credential and access management tool from DISA. He said that the department is already onboarding many of the department financial systems onto that tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cWe believe that that will be the exemplar that we adopt across the board across the department,\u201d McKeown said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The U.S Department of Defense wants to take further steps to advance
