Overview
Almost a decade since “Zero Trust” emerged as an approach to network security, the buzz around it is stronger than it has ever been. Zero Trust rejects the outdated idea that everything inside the internal network is safe, while everything outside it is unsafe.

But why is Zero Trust in particular gaining traction now? And is it really the best way to ensure effective security today? To answer these questions, join this session with Dave Taku
