Take the Zero Trust Approach
Zero trust has become a major focus area for the U.S. government in the last few years. An executive order issued by President Biden in May 2021 included the use of zero-trust architecture to strengthen federal government computer systems and networks.
Sophos Zero Trust Network Access allows you to segment access across your systems and resources. It constantly validates your users, devices, and policy compliance before granting access to your applications and data.
Secure Your Multi-Cloud Environments
Government organizations are rapidly adopting the cloud and implementing multi-cloud infrastructure with workloads spread across multiple public, private, and edge cloud platforms.
Sophos Cloud Native Security provides complete multi-cloud security coverage across your environments, workloads, and identities.
Meet Your Compliance Reporting Requirements
Government organizations must adhere to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Cybersecurity Framework and other regulations. But, a lack of skilled IT and financial resources can make it tough to create compliance reports and demonstrate compliance.
Sophos Central provides flexible reporting tools so you can visualize your network activities and security. It offers built-in compliance reports and easy-to-use tools for creating custom reports.
