The Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation (CDM) Program provides a dynamic approach to strengthening the cybersecurity of government networks and systems. The CDM Program was originally a phased development of requirements based on the security control groupings below:
- Phase 1 - What is on the network?
- Phase 2 - Who is on the network?
- Phase 3 - What is happening on the network?
- Phase 4 - Protecting the data on the network
During this VMware and Carahsoft webcast, subject matter experts explained how VMware Carbon Black is helping federal civilian agencies meet and exceed the CDM requirements for phase 1 and phase 3 with Carbon Black App Control and Caron Black's threat hunting EDR, both on-prem solutions, on the CDM approved products list, and used extensively across DoD, IC, and civilian agencies.
Watch this session on-demand to learn how:
- Software Asset Management (SWAM) capabilities within Carbon Black App Control automatically identify all software assets on endpoints - every file, application, certificate, each of the devices and the computers in an endpoint environment, as well as platform and software information
- Carbon Black App Control categorizes risk to the software by understanding what versions are being run, in order to approve (allowlisting) and ban (denylisting) either manually or automatically
- Carbon Black EDR continuously records and stores comprehensive endpoint activity data so that security professionals can hunt threats in real time and visualize the complete attack kill chain
