Much has changed since our CTO PJ Kirner last sat down with Forrester’s Dr. Chase Cunningham to discuss strategies for getting started with Zero Trust (if you missed that video, check it out here).
While the remote work movement is nothing new, the shift to a work-from-anywhere workforce means a new wave of security concerns for users and employers alike. A Zero Trust approach to security, with Zero Trust Segmentation as a foundational component, is more relevant than ever.
PJ and Chase reunited (from their respective coasts) to check in on how Zero Trust priorities have evolved in the past year and more recently. Tune in to the video to hear about:

“[Organizations] have to approach the problem differently. And the way that they do is they understand: My enterprise was relatively secure before. I thought I had a handle on it, I knew what I needed to take care of. Now I have this endpoint issue, so I have to find a way to bridge between those two things and take care of my users in the wilds of the internet and my core infrastructure. So if you can do those two things and you can apply the same controls at both areas with the same efficacy, you’re enabling Zero Trust.” – Dr. Chase Cunningham
3 Qualities to Look For in a Zero Trust Segmentation Platform
The best way to protect against cyberattacks spreading throughout your network is to deploy Zero Trust Segmentation, enforcing access controls that block the pathways breaches like ransomware depend on.
