Enhancing security of DOL data and applications
DEPARTMENT OF LABOR (DOL): Securing economic reports and worker protections against cyber threats
Challenge: DOL users currently access critical services and data, such as economic reports, retirement plan violation complaints, and worker protections, through a traditional “castle and moat” approach that focuses on external threats. DOL recognizes the critical role of a trust-based modern architecture in protecting its millions of stakeholders, securing its digital assets against cyber threats, and allowing access only to authorized users—in the office, on the road, or at home.
Approach: DOL is currently enhancing the security of its data and applications through the implementation of an enterprise zero trust architecture. With TMF support, DOL is accelerating the implementation and deployment of a secure access service edge solution to provide connectivity, consistent security, and optimized user experience to its employees, partners, and the public.
