2021: Dealing with reality, hype, and truth in cyber security

Even without the current forces of change, the world would be adopting zero-trust principles, but why is this happening? Learn from Dr. Chase Cunningham, what the issues really are and how an organization should deal with the truths that are so evident in cyber security. Chase will talk about how the U.S.DoD, healthcare, major banks and many more are deep into a long-term transformation, and how they're approaching the architecture, policy, and realities in this space. In this talk you'll also receive two simple questions to ask a zero-trust vendor who claims to address these fundamental issues and to find out whether they offer legitimate technology, or whether they, too, deserve Zero Trust.
