Booz Allen’s Kevin Coggins Suggests Zero Trust Implementation in Space Industry

TYSONS CORNER, VA, Aug 30, 2021 — Kevin Coggins, a vice president at Booz Allen Hamilton (NYSE: BAH), urged U.S. space companies to consider incorporating the zero trust security model into space-based networks as more organizations increasingly rely on the domain, ExecutiveBiz reported Aug. 17.

Breaking Defense reported Aug. 16 that Coggins links cybersecurity and resiliency to U.S. national security and economic impacts of space initiatives.

“The architectures of government systems are inherently trusting,” Coggins said at a Booz Allen-sponsored panel discussion. “If we continue to have these open, trusted links, we’re going to be constantly fighting [the] next threat.”
