Unlocking Zero Trust - Achieving Interoperability and Interconnectivity

Implementation of Zero Trust Architecture is a top priority for the USAF and USSF to enable continuous verification, authentication,Ā and monitoring to ensure security. There is a critical Zero Trust issue faced by the DAF and DoD because while many devices have Zero Trust built-in, they are very diverse in their approach and are not currently interoperable or interchangeable. The GetChkd platform provides for the secure and trusted exchange of data by employing blockchain technology.Ā Smart contracts play a pivotal role in orchestrating and enforcing access control based on predefined rules and roles. The platform inherently maintains immutable audit trails for all actions and transactions, facilitating accountability in the information-sharing process. The platform's pluggable capabilities enable seamless integration with current and future technologies, including defenses against quantum attacks of network and IoT (internet of things) devices.
