Agenda Day 2

1:00 PM Securing The Future Of Work: Defining The Synergy Between Zero Trust And SASE.

Today's anywhere workforce needs everywhere protection. And when 80% of CISO's say they've experienced a breach, we've reached a turning point. Enabling and protecting productivity in this future of Work requires a new approach. But it means thinking differently.

Many security organizations have adopted a Zero Trust approach to security. While this has traditionally been aligned with trusting identities, it extends into overall threat protection, meaning security departments assume that all content–regardless of whether it originates from a trusted source–is untrustworthy. Treating all content as if it is malicious eliminates the need to make an allow-or-block decision at the point of a click–resulting in a truly preventative approach to securing the anywhere, anytime workforce.

By now, you've also heard the acronym SASE (Secure Access Service Edge), a secure networking architecture that many security leaders are looking to deploy within their organizations. But what is the tie between Zero Trust and SASE? Does SASE come in a box? Do you need to choose between one or the other?

During this session, Mark Guntrip, Senior Director of Cybersecurity Strategy at Menlo Security, will tackle these questions and dive deep on:

  • Why focusing on detection is a reactive approach to security
  • The relationship between SASE and Zero Trust
  • Getting the upper hand in fighting online security threats targeting your users.

The world has reached a security inflexion point and a unique opportunity to reconsider how networks, IP assets, and end-users are protected from an expanding array of cyber threats. Those who choose the right path could emerge more secure than ever before with the capabilities to deliver security without compromise to the new workforce.
