Abstract

The Forrester report, "The Definition of Modern Zero Trust," defines Zero Trust as an information security model that denies access to applications and data by default. Zero Trust adoption can be difficult for organizations to undertake. It is not a specific technology to adopt; instead, it’s an initiative that an enterprise must understand, interpret, and implement.

In this webcast, SEI CERT Division Director Greg Touhill, and Dr. Chase Cunningham,  chief strategy officer at Ericom Software, answered questions and discussed what you need to implement a Zero Trust strategy.

What You Will Learn

• Why Zero Trust is a strategy and not a technology
• Steps to implement Zero Trust
