Ep 96 - Exploring the New Department of Defense Zero Trust Strategy

At the end of 2022, the Department of Defense (DoD) released its Zero Trust Strategy and Roadmap, which highlighted the four key goals of Zero Trust Cultural Adoption, DoD Information Systems Secured and Defended, Technology Acceleration, and Zero Trust Enablement.

With several federal agencies releasing Zero Trust frameworks and strategies, breaking down the guidelines and building a roadmap that establishes greater Zero Trust maturity is essential. However, with many Zero Trust models and cybersecurity strategies out there, defense agencies need to know which one is the best to secure their overall infrastructure.

These were the key themes of our latest Government Technology Insider podcast exploring the DoD’s new Zero Trust strategy. In this episode, Wes Withrow, Public Sector Solutions Executive with Verizon; and Patrick Perry, Senior Director Strategic Initiatives at Zscaler, discussed how defense agencies can create roadmaps for bringing this new Zero Trust strategy to life.
