San Martin wrote in an article published on Carahsoft.com that agencies should work with companies like Akamai that could provide them with tailored platforms like Connected Cloud designed to provide worldwide visibility and help identify “cyberattacks at an unmatched level, filtering by size, scope and scale.”
He noted that Akamai works to help identify security trends by processing over 11 trillion Domain Name System requests per day.
“Akamai’s DDoS protection is built on dedicated infrastructure to protect agencies’ interface-facing applications and systems while maintaining fast, highly secure and always available DNS,” he wrote.
The public sector VP highlighted the need for agencies to transition to a zero trust model in order to operate securely in the current threat landscape.
In this article, the Akamai executive discussed how the company’s zero trust offerings work to help agencies advance cybersecurity by providing them with visibility into network flows, access and assets and how its expertise enables agencies to look for the most evasive cyber threats and restrict lateral movement while ensuring the delivery of public services.
