Zscaler Added to the DHS’ Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation Program; Stephen Kovac Quoted

Zscaler, Inc. has been added to the Department of Homeland Security Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation Program Approved Products List, the company announced on Thursday. 

“Civilian and Department of Defense agencies currently use Zscaler to provide secure access to data and applications,” said Stephen Kovac, vice president of global government and compliance at Zscaler. 

“The addition to the CDM APL further expands the federal market for Zscaler, enabling federal agencies to more quickly modernize and shift applications and infrastructure to the cloud. By procuring Zscaler cloud-delivered service, agencies can reduce cyber risk and significantly improve the end user experience,” Kovac added. 

The CDM program helps agencies identify and mitigate cyber risk and quickly implement new cyber security offerings. DHS provides cybersecurity tools, integration services, and dashboards to participating agencies to support them in improving their respective security posture. 

All federal agencies can purchase CDM products from the APL through the Dynamic and Evolving Federal Enterprise Network Defense acquisition strategy.
