HYAS, Carahsoft Partner to Give Government Agencies Protective DNS, Deeper Cyber Threat Intel

Carahsoft Technology Corp., The Trusted Government IT Solutions Provider®, is now the Master Government Aggregator® for HYAS Infosec and is bringing the Company's industry leading HYAS Protect protective DNS and HYAS Insight threat intelligence and investigation platforms to the public sector.

Carahsoft's reseller partners and NASA Solutions for Enterprise-Wide Procurement (SEWP) V, Information Technology Enterprise Solutions - Software 2 (ITES-SW2), National Association of State Procurement Officials (NASPO) ValuePoint and OMNIA Partners contracts will provide new visibility, protection and security against all kinds of malware and attacks through HYAS' adversary infrastructure platform.

"We are pleased to partner with Carahsoft to further enable Government agencies in taking decisive, proactive steps to substantially reduce their cybersecurity risks," said David Ratner, CEO at HYAS. "Together we provide unprecedented, preemptive control and forward-looking intelligence for ransomware, malware, phishing and other cyber attacks to help organizations to thwart their intended impacts, drive toward cyber resiliency and gain awareness of potential future threats."

"With the addition of HYAS solutions to our portfolio, we now offer our customers independently proven visibility, protection and security against various forms of malware and attacks," said Michael Shrader, Vice President of Intelligence and Innovative Solutions at Carahsoft. "This ensures their resilience against dynamic attack vectors, surfaces or techniques utilized to breach their environment - even those that are unprecedented or unseen. Carahsoft and our reseller partners are eager to provide Government agencies with streamlined access to solutions that identify, track and prevent cyber attacks as they become more sophisticated."

CISA, NSA: Protective DNS a "Must-Have" 

The partnership helps Government agencies align to DNS security requirements set forth by Cybersecurity Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA), National Security Agency (NSA) and Department of Defense (DoD). Considered a "must-have" by CISA and the NSA, Protective DNS is an essential component of the Public Sector's security posture, as well as a critical element of the Cybersecurity Model Maturity Certification (CMMC) framework.

Globally recognized independent research institute AV-TEST GmbH tested HYAS Protect and found it provides exceptionally high levels of cybersecurity protection. The solution leverages intelligence and data derived from the HYAS Adversary Infrastructure Platform to uniquely analyze and correlate data points together for increased efficacy and deeper insights. Test results are available at https://www.av-test.org/fileadmin/pdf/reports/AV-TEST_HYAS_Protect_Evaluation_February_2023.pdf
