Onclave Networks receives ATO from Defense Health Agency

Onclave Networks has announced it has been granted an Authority to Operate (ATO) from the Defense Health Agency (DHA), the first ever such authorisation awarded to a secure communications platform on the basis of Zero Trust. The authorisation marks a step in the adoption of stringent security standards to protect the nation’s health data amid increasing cyber threats.

Onclave is a global cybersecurity company aiming to change the future of securing IT/OT devices, systems and users, improving on the methods and technology used by the Department of Defense (DoD) and U.S. Intelligence Community (IC). Onclave’s TrustedPlatform is a Zero Trust-based network overlay that protects networks by cryptographically securing vulnerable OT and IoT/IoMT networks. Onclave eliminates the attack surface, prevents breaches and secures the network from malicious lateral movement.

“Receiving this ATO from the Defense Health Agency, the first of its kind awarded on the basis of Zero Trust by any federal government agency, is a significant achievement for Onclave,” said James Taylor, the CEO of Onclave Networks. “It highlights our innovative technology and our strong dedication to protecting the nation’s health systems. This milestone is crucial as it opens the door for wider acceptance of zero trust architectures within the federal government, enhancing our defence against more complex and advanced threats.”

“Onclave’s Authorisation to Operate from the Defense Health Agency will propel it forward across the federal government, hardening the nation’s most critical cybersecurity ecosystems,” said Manish Thakur, a board member of Onclave and managing partner at Option3.

Onclave expects the ATO to set a new standard for the implementation of Zero Trust across the federal government, with initial customers including the DHA, White House Communications Agency and NATO.
