Zero Trust: Modern Security’s Remedy to Today’s Cybersecurity Challenges

Good security requires a defense-in-depth strategy. Ensuring user trust, password managers, MFA, EDR and SSO tools all work together in concert. But, human error is often the weakest link in the security chain, you must ensure that other layers are in place to close this final link in the chain and mitigate against all modern attacks. 

This talk will share a practitioner’s hard won insight from real-world implementations at two Fortune 500 enterprises and the journey those companies are on. We will share the vision that led these organizations down the path of a defense-in-depth strategy that included Zero Trust and Security Services Edge (SSE).

Cyber Warriors or Cyber Geeks

Traditional lines are blurred. The President of the Ukraine makes a global appeal for any citizen with a hacker skillset to help their cyber war & within one week, 250,000 people join a Telegram account to coordinate attacks against Russia. A retiree invests in bitcoin, only to find all the money’s been stolen from their ewallet. Gas stations in Iran are hacked & the dissident group published the Supreme Leader’s personal phone number for tech support. A cybercrime syndicate provides excellent tech support, to help victims pay ransoms & issues them a receipt. Check Point finds & blocks over 7,000 brand new attacks each & every day.

With all this noise, how do you know from where the next threats will come?
