Zero Trust: Building Your Security Mesh With All Star Players

Online

Being intelligent with identity is crucial to any security or IT project. Our webinar series is designed to look at identities in relation to the market hot topics, and provide you, with clear takeaways on what you need to do now. As envisioned by NIST (SP 800-207), Zero Trust security models eliminate persistent trust and enforce continuous authentication, least privilege, and adaptive access control. This strategy also applies segmentation and micro-segmentation for secure access. A zero-trust approach is about constant visibility into who is doing what on your network. This ensures maximum control over network security and network access. One thing analysts, enterprises, and customers alike can agree on is that the journey to Zero Trust must start with Identity and Privilege. But choosing the right technologies to incorporate into your security mesh can feel a little like choosing a team to play a baseball game without anyone playing together before. You have a finite amount of members you can have on your team and you want the best person for each position, but without practice you have no idea who that is.

Leading Change Through Digital Transformations

Online

We are at an inflection point of incredible opportunity, and leaders need a workforce that is engaged and motivated, making progress. But what has worked in the past will not work now. With 72% of employees reporting feeling disengaged, and people reflecting on how work should fit them, a new approach is needed to shape a working environment that is creative, collaborative, and productive. Leaders that are unable to evolve and adapt, will likely lose their top talent and struggle to compete against organizations who have the toolkit to effectively respond to the 5 External Shifts… The WorkInsights program provides a framework for the shifts needed to lead effectively and provide the working environment most effective to attract and retain talent and gain their best contribution. Harvard Business School shows 60% of the results of an organization are attributed to the one senior leader – a significant responsibility if you are that leader - the question is, are you ready?
