New joint capability extends zero trust and data-centric security across network boundaries to streamline multi-domain collaboration

Everfox, a leader in cross domain and insider risk solutions, and Virtru, an innovator in data-centric security, today announced a strategic partnership focused on delivering a cross domain-enabled enterprise platform that will accelerate compliance with Allied Communication Publication (ACP) 240. This standard has been adopted by FVEY partners and other allied nations in an effort to continue implementing Zero Trust security measures and achieve Data-Centric Security (DCS) for multi-domain operations.

ACP 240 is underpinned by Virtru’s Zero Trust Data Format (ZTDF), which is designed to protect data wherever it travels, even in coalition or contested environments. Everfox’s Cross Domain Solutions (CDS) and Virtru’s Data Security Platform combine to deliver a ground-breaking ACP 240-compliant secure data sharing fabric for multi-domain and multi-classification collaboration among U.S. agencies, allied nations, and mission partners. The open-standard Trusted Data Format (TDF) serves as the foundation for ZTDF.

“Together with Virtru, we’re extending Zero Trust across multi-domain environments and enabling America’s security agencies to share vital information faster than ever and more securely than ever,” said Sean Berg, CEO of Everfox. “By putting security controls inside the data and trusted enforcement at the network boundary, sensitive information can move with confidence. That means secure, auditable data sharing for government teams, partners and integrators, and real decision advantage at mission speed.”

“We’re thrilled to join forces with Everfox and its world-class CDS to deliver a next-generation, secure information-sharing fabric that will allow agencies to transfer data across classification boundaries while keeping controls on the data itself. Maintaining ownership and control of sensitive data as it inevitably travels outside of the perimeter is invaluable for mission partners,” said John Ackerly, Co-Founder and CEO of Virtru.

The Everfox and Virtru partnership delivers:

• Rapid, governed sharing across classification boundaries to improve decision advantage and speed
• Open, standard-based controls that stay with the data
• Trusted movement across network boundaries with end-to-end policy
• Readiness from sovereign cloud to the tactical edge, with clear lineage for analytics and AI
