That's why public sector organizations are turning to the AWS Zero Trust Accelerator for Government, or ZTAG program, to accelerate their zero trust adoption, enhance security posture, and align with federal guidance. By combining the cloud scalability of AWS with identity security from Okta, endpoint security from CrowdStrike, and cloud security from Zscaler, agencies can stay ahead of threats. The power of this solution comes from automating risk signal sharing across identity, endpoint, app, and data controls. First, CrowdStrike's Falcon platform detects suspicious activity at the endpoint and sends risk signals to Okta via the Standards-Based Shared Signals Framework, or SSF. Okta's Identity Threat Protection analyzes these signals to detect anomalies, adjust risk scores, and enforce adaptive access controls across sessions. Zscaler's Adaptive Access Engine builds on that intelligence, enforcing zero trust policies to reflect real-time risk. These work together seamlessly. The result? AWS workloads stay protected from unauthorized or risky access, automatically and continuously. With real-time risk analysis, you can reduce the attack surface, prevent lateral threat movement, decrease false positives, and automate detection and response while making smarter, adaptive access decisions in real-time. Visit us online to learn more.

TL;DR

  • The AWS Zero Trust Accelerator for Government (ZTAG) program combines AWS, Okta, CrowdStrike, and Zscaler to help public sector agencies accelerate zero trust adoption and align with federal security guidance.
  • The solution automates risk signal sharing across identity, endpoint, application, and data controls using the Standards-Based Shared Signals Framework (SSF) to enable real-time threat detection and adaptive access enforcement.
  • Organizations can reduce attack surface, prevent lateral threat movement, decrease false positives, and automate detection and response while making smarter access decisions based on continuous risk analysis.

Summary

This demonstration showcases the AWS Zero Trust Accelerator for Government (ZTAG) program, a collaborative solution designed to help public sector organizations accelerate zero trust adoption and enhance security posture in alignment with federal guidance. The solution integrates AWS cloud scalability with identity security from Okta, endpoint security from CrowdStrike, and cloud security from Zscaler to create an automated risk signal sharing framework. CrowdStrike's Falcon platform detects suspicious endpoint activity and transmits risk signals to Okta via the Standards-Based Shared Signals Framework (SSF). Okta's Identity Threat Protection then analyzes these signals to detect anomalies, adjust risk scores, and enforce adaptive access controls. Zscaler's Adaptive Access Engine leverages this intelligence to enforce zero trust policies that reflect real-time risk, ensuring AWS workloads remain protected from unauthorized or risky access through continuous, automated monitoring and response.

FAQ

What is the AWS Zero Trust Accelerator for Government (ZTAG) program?

ZTAG is a collaborative program that combines AWS cloud infrastructure with security solutions from Okta, CrowdStrike, and Zscaler to help public sector organizations accelerate zero trust adoption, enhance security posture, and align with federal guidance through automated risk signal sharing and adaptive access controls.

How does the solution automate threat detection and response?

CrowdStrike's Falcon platform detects suspicious endpoint activity and sends risk signals to Okta via the Standards-Based Shared Signals Framework (SSF). Okta analyzes these signals to adjust risk scores and enforce adaptive access controls, while Zscaler's Adaptive Access Engine enforces zero trust policies based on real-time risk, creating an automated, continuous protection loop.
