## Description

The purpose of this procurement is to renew the CDC’s existing subscription to Axiad Conductor to ensure continued availability of phishing-resistant authentication services currently deployed within the CDC environment. Axiad’s solution is integrated with CDC systems and supports secure access across applications and environments where PIV-based authentication is not feasible.

Renewal of this subscription will maintain continuity of service and support ongoing alignment with Federal Zero Trust and Identity Management requirements. This renewal includes the Axiad Conductor Gold Bundle, providing a Virtual Private Cloud-hosted service with a FIPS 140-2 Level 2 HSM partition, user subscriptions, and 24x7 premium support.
