Ep36 | ACP 240 in Action: Data-Centric Security for the Mission Partner Environment

January 23, 2026

Unpack ACP 240, data-centric security, and the future of how allied nations share sensitive data across domain boundaries

The way allied nations share sensitive data is changing, and its changing fast. Network-centric security, the backbone of defense and intelligence communities for decades, is no longer enough to keep pace with today's dynamic, multi-domain mission environment.

In this episode of Hash It Out, host Matt Howard sits down with Virtru's Jimmy Lemkemeier and Everfox's David "Flash" Flanagan — two solutions architects with decades of experience in cross-domain interoperability — to break down what ACP 240 is, why it matters, and what it means for the future of coalition data sharing.

Together, they explore:

  • The shift from network-centric to data-centric security
  • How ACP 240 is establishing a unified standard across Five Eyes partners and beyond
  • The role of Zero Trust in enabling secure, sovereign data sharing across domain boundaries
  • What architects and program managers should be thinking about today to prepare for tomorrow

Whether you're deep in the weeds of national defense or simply navigating the evolving world of data security, this conversation is one you won't want to miss.
