CoSo Cloud Attains DISA IL4 Certification for DoD Customers


CoSo Cloud (CoSo), a leading provider of secure, private-cloud managed services and software applications for virtual classroom training and high-consequence meetings, announced today that it has achieved Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) authorization to operate at the High Impact Level (IL4). CoSo previously attained FedRAMP Moderate Impact level (IL2) certification for Federal Government agencies. The new IL4 certification makes CoSo the only Adobe Connect partner to be in compliance with the Department of Defense's strict requirements for the government's most sensitive, Controlled Unclassified Information (CIU) in cloud computing environments, including data that could lead to life and financial ruin.

CoSo Cloud's IL4 classification makes it possible for federal and state agencies, financial systems, healthcare systems and more, to use Adobe Connect to create innovative eLearning and training programs with immersive digital learning experiences in a secure private cloud. CoSo's Secure Private Cloud Platform integrates with various learning management systems (LMS) with additional subsription applications while retaining security, confidentiality, integrity and availability.



With IL4 certification, CoSo is now facilitating a cloud-based training and worldwide seminar environment that will enable the Marine Corps Education, College of Distance Education and Training (CDET) to effectively increase operational readiness.

"Part of our curriculum utilizes CUI information," said Larry E. Smith II, ED.S, Technical Director at USMC CDET. "By providing our instructors and students the ability to leverage the tools available from CoSo in the Adobe Connect virtual classrooms within an IL4 environment, is a big win for not only us, but across government agencies."


DISA assists DoD agencies and departments in planning and authorizing the use of a Cloud Service Operator (CSO) while ensuring they meet DoD cloud security requirements. FedRAMP authorizes Cloud Service Providers (CSOs) at low, moderate, and high impact levels. The Department of Defense (DoD) Impact Level 4 (IL4) is a certification that allows for processing and storage of Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) or Non-CUI, Non-Critical Mission Information and Non-National Security Systems.

"CoSo Cloud continues to make investments to ensure our customers have the critical security certifications to enable them to hold high-consequence virtual training and meetings with high confidence and reliability," said CoSo Cloud CEO Glen D. Vondrick. "Multiple civilian government agencies depend upon our FedRAMP Moderate certification, and now with DISA IL4 we are also able to help DoD components use the secure CoSo Cloud platform to conduct business for our distributed armed forces."

The US DoD, Microsoft, Nvidia, General Motors, FEMA, DHS, FDA, Boeing, Dominos and many others leverage CoSo's Secure Private Cloud Platform to deploy products and applications from Adobe and Zoom.
