Solution Provider Neutrality: Neutral
US Executive Order (EO) 140281 requires federal agencies to implement zero trust. For the Department of Defense (DoD), zero trust requires designing a consolidated and more secure architecture without impeding operations or compromising security.  Zero trust supports the Federal Information Security Modernization Act of 2014 (FISMA), 2018 DoD Cyber Strategy, the 2019 DoD Digital Modernization Strategy, and the DoD Chief Information Officer’s (CIO) vision. The overlays are designed to accelerate implementation of zero trust within the department to better protect DOD networks.

The DoD Zero Trust Overlays are based on the DoD Zero Trust Reference Architecture and the DoD Zero Trust Capability Execution Roadmap. These documents describe the set of pillars, capabilities, enablers, and supporting activities and outcomes that underpin the Zero Trust Overlays.
