Cornerstone Achieves Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) and Department of Defense (DoD) Impact Level 4 (IL4) Provisional Authorization, Strengthening Commitment to U.S. Government Security

SANTA MONICA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cornerstone OnDemand Inc., a leader in workforce agility solutions, today announced it has achieved Impact Level 4 (IL4) from the Defense Information Systems Agency (DISA) and the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD). With IL4, additional government organizations within the DoD community can access Cornerstone, elevating how federal government employees learn, create and perform. As the first workforce agility solution to receive DISA IL4 provisional authorization, Cornerstone has further cemented its long-standing commitment to ensuring a highly reliable and secure environment for U.S. government organizations looking to effectively recruit, train, manage and connect their employees.

Attracting and retaining strong top talent, upskilling to keep pace with commercial technology advancements, and maintaining efficiency and compliance with ever-changing regulations and limited budgets has never been more challenging. With Cornerstone's achieved IL4 provisional authorization and AI-powered workforce agility platform, organizations can modernize the management of compliance training and employee performance within a highly secured and reliable environment designed specifically for the government. Leveraging modern skills training, clearly defined career paths and real-time feedback, customers will be better equipped to promote from within and develop the next generation of leaders.

“At Cornerstone, innovation and security are at the core of our mission to meet customers where they are,” said Srini Ogireddy, Cornerstone Chief Technology Officer. “Every government agency and department faces unique challenges while balancing stringent compliance requirements with the urgent need for digital transformation. Achieving IL4 provisional authorization reinforces our commitment to providing government partners with secure, adaptive and high-performance technology—empowering them to confidently streamline operations, safeguard critical data, and make mission-critical decisions with speed and precision.”

“It's no secret that AI is everywhere in HR technology right now. But to effectively make use of modern AI you must have data that is safe, secure, and reliable. That is why Cornerstone receiving IL4 provisional authorization from the DISA is such a big deal,” said Cliff Stevenson, Director of Research & Principal Analyst, Sapient Insights Group. “This achievement signifies that their data meets the highly strict requirements of that agency, which far surpass anything required in current civilian legislation. Any organization, even if they are not affiliated with government contacts in any way, can see this authorization and know that Cornerstone is safeguarding both their employees and their organization's interests when it comes to the confidentiality and access to sensitive information.”

In tandem with Cornerstone’s IL4 provisional authorization, the company also offers Cornerstone Content Subscriptions, featuring a Public Sector subscription with hand-picked content for highly regulated organizations that require 508 and WCAG compliant content. The subscription includes over 5,000 courses and 20 different content providers, including Cornerstone’s award-winning Cornerstone Originals, all available through various learning modalities.
