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.

When the Office of Management and Budget issued its Federal Zero Trust Strategy in January 2022, it set the end of Fiscal Year 2024 – September 30, 2024 – as the completion date for a host of cybersecurity standards and objectives to be completed...
