OODA Loop – Future Cybersecurity Architectures: DoD’s Zero Trust Pilot Program and Native Zero Trust Design
In response to the SolarWinds Orion and Hafnium Microsoft Exchange breaches in the late Winter of 2020/early Spring of this year, the U.S. Senate Committee on Armed Services, Subcommittee on Cyber, held a hearing on April 14th. Entitled “Future Cybersecurity Architectures“. The specific breaches were actually only the context for a larger conversation about (and a general update on) DoD implementation of the recently approved DoD Zero Trust Architecture Framework. Expert witnesses at the hearing included:
Mr. David McKeown is the Senior Information Security Officer/ Chief Information Officer for Cybersecurity at the Department of Defense (DoD). McKeown leads and oversees the implementation of the DoD Zero Trust Framework across the agency.
Mr. Robert Joyce, Director of Cybersecurity at the National Security Agency (NSA) in the newly formed NSA Cybersecurity Directorate, leads the IC’s and DoD’s most technical cybersecurity component and provided the subcommittee with the most technical details on the DoD Zero Trust implementation.
Rear Admiral William Chase III is currently serving as the Senior Military Advisor for Cyber Policy to the Under Secretary of Defense for Policy and the Deputy Principal Cyber Advisor to the Secretary of Defense.
