1.0 DISCLAIMER AND ADMINISTRATIVE NOTICE This Request for Information (RFI) is issued solely for information and planning purposes and does not constitute a Request for Proposal (RFP), Request for Quotation (RFQ), Invitation for Bids (IFB), or a promise to issue a solicitation in the future. This RFI does not commit the Government to contract for any supply or service whatsoever. Furthermore, the Government is not at this time seeking proposals and will not accept unsolicited proposals. Responders are advised that the Government will not pay for any information or administrative costs incurred in response to this RFI; all costs associated with responding to this RFI will be solely at the interested party s expense. Not responding to this RFI does not preclude participation in any future Request for Proposal (RFP), if any is issued. 2.0 BACKGROUND Space Systems Command (SSC) S6, Cyber and Data, is issuing this RFI to support mission system programs in identifying and selecting commercial Zero Trust (ZT) solutions that align with the U.S. Department of Defense/Department of War s (DoD/DoW) Zero Trust Framework and National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Zero Trust guidelines. Currently, Zero Trust solutions vary significantly across the commercial market in capability, maturity, and implementation approach. Because of this variance, mission systems face challenges in determining which solutions are best suited to address their specific ZT gaps. 3.0 PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVE To address this need, SSC s S6 is developing a ZTA Vendor Framework that will provide a structured and categorized view of available commercial ZT solutions. The framework will serve as a decision-support resource to help mission system stakeholders: Understand the vendor landscape. Compare solution types and capabilities. Assess how commercial offerings align to DoD/DoW Zero Trust activities, requirements, and mission needs. Select solutions that best fit identified capability gaps. Through this RFI, SSC s S6 seeks specific information from Zero Trust vendors regarding their products, services, and technical capabilities. The information collected will be evaluated and used to build this categorized repository. Ultimately, the results of this effort will inform mission system programs as they evaluate available options and pursue solutions that align with their specific Zero Trust implementation goals. 4.0 REQUESTED INFORMATION / AREAS OF INTEREST Interested parties are requested to complete the attached fillable PDF Form to provide information about their commercial Zero Trust solutions, or by completing the same form (ZTA Vendor Framework Campaign - Survey Questions) online by following https://forms.cloud.microsoft/g/2kJ75aaDuR. 5.0 QUESTIONS AND CLARIFICATIONS Questions regarding this RFI must be submitted to both the Primary and Alternate POCs identified. The Government will attempt to answer relevant questions but is not obligated to respond to all inquiries.
