Demystifying Misconceptions Around Zero Trust as a Buzzword and Strategy

When a concept or strategy gains enough traction, marketing and sales jump in to capitalize on it, and eventually, it becomes a poisoned well from which people draw.

This happens not because the strategy itself lacks merit, but because we, as humans, get saturated with information, and anything that everyone is talking about begins to seem like BS.

However, just because there's a lot of noise around a particular concept doesn't mean that there isn't something valuable at the core.

Brutally honest insights from Aaron Brongersma, Leader of the Cloud Center of Excellence at Checkpoint and Chase Cunningham Chief Strategy Officer (CSO) at Ericom Software.

In this episode, Dani Woolf had a conversation with Aaron and Chase about:

• How the Zero Trust eXtended framework is shifting given the dynamic nature of the market

• Ways cybersecurity vendors and the folks working for the vendors can quickly and authentically establish trust with buyers

• Where Zero Trust heading in the next 3 to 5 years
