The US Army Network Enterprise Technology Command (NETCOM) has authorized the use and purchase of 12 different SolarWinds solutions for network and systems management with a Certificate of Networthiness (CoN).

The US Army CoN accreditation ensures that SolarWinds products meet strict US Army and Department of Defense (DoD) standards for security, compatibility and sustainability.

The CoN is required for all enterprise software products in the Army Enterprise Infrastructure Network. The certification also applies to all the listed Army functional components that use the Army Enterprise Infrastructure, including National Guard, Army Reserve and other Army commands.

Supporting information on SolarWinds’ CoNs can be found on the AKO Networthiness website using the CoN for SolarWinds Network Management 1.x, CERT-201315970.

With the CoN, the following SolarWinds software can be loaded and used on any Army computer:

- SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor: Comprehensive network fault, performance and availability management

- SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor: Application and server monitoring

This consolidated CoN extends the list of existing CoNs for SolarWinds products including DameWare Remote Support, DameWare Mini Remote Control and SolarWinds Web Help Desk.

“SolarWinds is dedicated to providing safe and secure software, and the Army CoN provides assurance that we maintain those high standards and compliance requirements that are necessary for approving and installing new software,” said Dave Kimball, VP Federal Sales, SolarWinds. “Currently nearly every branch of the DoD and the majority of civilian and intelligence agencies use SolarWinds, and we are proud to continue to provide our powerful and secure network and systems management solutions to help agencies deliver on their missions.”
