Ransomware, malware, phishing, DDoS, social engineering, zero-day exploit, botnets – the list of types of attacks out there is long enough to keep even the most seasoned cybersecurity expert awake at night. And with the increased use of remote computing, the cyber attack surface grows as more edge devices are added to networks. Creating a zero trust environment holds a lot of promise to provide significantly improved cybersecurity.

In the face of new and growing threats many federal, state and local IT budgets stay the same, however. The challenge becomes how to plan and implement a zero trust environment within budgets that are slow to increase.

Learning Objectives:

Identify the most common roadblocks to planning a zero trust architecture implementation, such as working with legacy systems
Delineate possible roles for X-as-a-Service solutions, whether infrastructure, platform or software
Define metrics to measure cost avoidance through the prevention of cyber attacks, e.g., tracking the decline in incidents and cost of response
