Who manages the DoDIN APL?

The Approved Products Certification Office (APCO) is responsible for managing the Department of Defense Information Network Approved Products List (DoDIN APL). This organization provides evaluations and certifications for various products that are intended for use within the DoD's information technology systems. The DoDIN APL is crucial for ensuring that only products that meet stringent security and performance requirements are deployed in the DoD environment, thus maintaining the integrity and security of its networks and data.

Products that successfully undergo the certification process by the APCO are added to the DoDIN APL, which serves as an authoritative catalog for Department of Defense components and their contractors, ensuring compliance with security standards. This management by the APCO is essential for promoting cybersecurity and interoperability across the Department of Defense, supporting operational readiness and effectiveness in military operations.

The other options, while related to cybersecurity and network management, do not hold the authority or responsibility for the DoDIN APL as the APCO does.
