Understanding the Common Data Security Challenges Faced by the Government Contracting Industry

Unstructured Data and Documents

Unstructured data and documents are an integral part of government contracting, but they pose a significant security risk. Unlike structured data stored in databases, unstructured data is not organized, making it challenging to locate and control. With the increasing use of mobile devices and remote work, unstructured data can be accessed from multiple endpoints outside of network boundaries, increasing the risk of data loss or cyber attacks. Furthermore, without proper visibility into who is accessing what files across the organization, there is a significant risk of insider threats and data breaches.

Secure Data Collaboration

Government contracting often requires sharing information internally and externally with contractors and partners. However, traditional methods of sharing information, such as email and file transfer protocol (FTP), are often not secure enough to protect sensitive information. Secure sharing of information requires traceability, user-friendly interfaces, and secure transfer mechanisms. Additionally, ensuring only the right people have access to the right information is a critical challenge. This requires a Zero Trust Data Access (ZTDA) solution that verifies user identity and access privileges before granting data access.

How Phalanx MUZE Addresses Common Data Security Challenges Faced by the Government Contracting Industry

Secure Sharing of Information

Phalanx MUZE provides a secure platform for sharing information internally and externally, ensuring traceability, user-friendly interfaces, and secure transfer mechanisms. The platform offers end-to-end encryption for sensitive information such as proposal, costing, and bidding information, as well as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI), Personally Identifiable Information (PII), and export-controlled information for components of CMMC and ITAR compliance. With Phalanx MUZE, sharing proprietary client information stored in cloud and endpoint environments by remote workforces is secure and straightforward, reducing the amount of unencrypted information residing on email servers.

Zero Trust Data Access (ZTDA)

Phalanx MUZE provides a Zero Trust Data Access (ZTDA) solution that combines automation, encryption, and identity for a seamless data access experience. With ZTDA, access to data is granted based on identity, device, location, and other contextual factors, providing an extra layer of security that traditional access controls cannot offer. This ensures that only the right people have access to the right information, reducing the risk of insider threats and data breaches. Additionally, ZTDA allows for easy encrypted data access without relying on cloud storage, securing third-party file transfers, and protecting sensitive information stored on endpoints outside of network boundaries.

"Phalanx has significantly reduced the time that it takes for us to be able to construct a POC with our customers. As with any data relationship, sending data back and forth can either be problematic if you have to develop new API’s. Having the ability to use flat files with our customers who can simply create a folder in their choice of cloud storage where all files are automatically encrypted and delivered them to us seamlessly is a big plus. In addition, their system helps keep the data on all of our corporate laptops safe and secure!"

“With more stringent CUI requirement from the DoD, we had a major challenge finding simple secure file transfer solutions that also allowed us to stay compliant. Most potential solutions we researched were either too cumbersome or not practical to implement in our environment. Phalanx lets us easily exchange sensitive and CUI files without adding complexities while also providing automatic security for those files when they’re stored on our devices.”
