During the past decade, increasing numbers of organizations have transformed their applications to be cloud native, building workloads based on multicloud architecture. Connecting and securing these cloud workloads has not been effective for many reasons and today, there are many benefits to a converged workload communication architecture that unifies security and operations. SANS tested the new Zscaler Zero Trust platform for cloud workloads,...

Zero trust is a cybersecurity concept, and implementation architecture, that emphasizes the need for strict verification of all devices, users, and networks before granting access to sensitive data and systems. Security teams love the idea of zero trust, but what goes behind implementing and successfully maintaining zero trust architecture? During this event, we'll bring together experts and industry leaders to discuss the latest developments...

The castle model is dead, it's time to move on. Protecting our corporations primarily from the outside looking in is a naive and inefficient approach. Prevention is great, but inevitably the defenses will fail, and the attackers are on the inside. Threats attacking us from the inside are real, and we can neither avoid it nor can we "trust our employees". While it would be nice to trust employees, and we can trust most of them, we need to be vi...

As federal agencies and private organizations continue the push to Zero Trust deadlines, we’ve all got some some Trust issues to work on. The best thing to do is get it all out in the open and don’t let your relationship with your networks get toxic. Moving to Zero Trust requires a good foundation that your organization can build trust on. In this Webinar, experts from Corelight’s Public Sector team will discuss how security...

The past two years have brought about a decade’s worth of change to federal technology, from rapidly pivoting to and sustaining a remote, virtual-enabled workforce, to revitalizing customer experience at the heart of government’s biggest missions – all while defending against increasingly sophisticated attacks and making big bets on next generation technologies like cloud, AI and automation. And these transformations are only...

The physical boundaries of business have blurred. Many organizations now operate as virtual ecosystems with no borders. While this change has helped improve agency resiliency and workforce satisfaction, it upends the traditional security framework and increases risk across every other aspect of an organization. Utilizing a Zero-Trust framework can be an effective security strategy that doesn't compromise user experience or team productivity. A...
