Live event date: Tuesday, March 28, 2023 | 2 p.m. ET
It’s been almost two years since the release of Executive Order (EO) 14028, and we are midway to the 2024 target date for federal agencies to achieve certain Zero Trust architecture objectives. EO 14028 was a catalyst for the release of additional guidance from the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, U.S. Department of Defense (U.S. National Security Agency and U.S. Defense Information Systems Agency), U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology, U.S. General Services Administration, and government-focused advisory organizations.
Join this session to gain insight from Red Hat’s Zero Trust expert and a guest speaker from Forrester Research into where federal agencies are in their Zero Trust journey, what we have learned, and how you can apply the lessons these agencies have learned to achieve success in modernizing your Zero Trust architecture.
In this webinar, we’ll cover:
- The current state of Zero Trust architecture pattern adoption within federal agencies since the release of EO 14028
- Real-world examples of lessons these agencies have learned
- What we can expect in the next 12 months
On-demand event: Available for one year afterward.
