The Department of Homeland Security has selected RSA Archer's GRC solution for its Continuous Diagnostics and Mitigation dashboard, according to RSA officials.
Former Navy Rear Adm. Michael Brown, vice president and general manager of RSA's Global Public Sector, made the announcement in a Sept. 2 blog post.
DHS declined to comment.
GRC is the latest commercial tool to be added to the CDM program. In August, the General Services Administration awarded blanket purchase agreements to 17 companies and teams of companies to provide monitoring tools under CDM.
The RSA dashboard was chosen by InfoReliance, which is part of the Metrica Team Venture group that received a contract in March to design and implement the CDM dashboard. InfoReliance worked with DHS' Federal Network Resilience office to analyze commercial alternatives in designing the dashboard.
Brown said the dashboard is designed to allow federal agencies to collect data, such as scan reports from sensors, and export customized reports for IT leaders.
