Modern application environments now extend across multi-cloud platforms, data centers, and distributed edge locations. With the rise of remote work and AI-driven applications, the attack surface is rapidly expanding. Traditional Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs) often fall short in securing this complex landscape or safeguarding AI models, leaving gaps that enable advanced threats. In this webinar, experts from SANS and Cisco will explore the...

Branch offices, remote campuses, and distributed OT/IoT environments have long relied on legacy VPNs, firewalls, and replicated security stacks to stay connected and secure. But these approaches introduce high costs, operational complexity, and leave dangerous gaps—especially around lateral movement within branch networks. In this SANS First Look webcast, we explore how Zscaler’s Zero Trust Branch (ZTB) introduces a new, streamline...

Bootstrap means to start with “existing resources,” is commonly used with startup companies, and is far more widely applicable. There are many examples of successful bootstrapping and many advantages. Tenable, Sourcefire (acquired by Cisco for $2.7 billion), Malwarebytes, and SolarWinds are all companies that were bootstrapped. Wireshark and OSSEC are open source projects that were bootstrapped. The BSides conferences were bootstra...

Operational Technology (OT) environments are more dependent than ever on remote access—for vendor support, troubleshooting, and data sharing—yet each connection can expand the attack surface. From disruptive ransomware to the cascading impacts seen in events like Ukraine’s 2015 grid attacks and Colonial Pipeline, the lesson is clear: Remote access is both a necessity and a potential vulnerability. This webcast distills guidan...
