Zero Trust with Zero Exceptions

About the Event

Hybrid work and direct-to-app architectures have dramatically expanded enterprise attack surfaces. Discover how next-generation Zero Trust frameworks can more effectively secure modern cloud environments while providing greater visibility and control of data to better safeguard employees and the organization. Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) has proven to be an important technology initiative during the global pandemic, enabling organizations to empower remote workers by providing improvements in security, manageability and scalability instead of relying upon vulnerable Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). But now that we’re 3+ years into the pivot to remote and hybrid work, it’s become increasingly clear that ZTNA 1.0 architectures fall short in delivering on the promise of true Zero Trust. For starters, ZTNA 1.0 architectures grant greater levels of access than desired. Moreover, once access is granted in ZTNA 1.0 frameworks, the connection is implicitly trusted forever, providing a gateway for malicious actions. These types of vulnerabilities help explain why 59% of decision-makers surveyed by ESG say that cybersecurity has become more difficult over the past two years. It's time to embrace a progressive approach to Zero Trust by drawing upon a ZTNA 2.0 architecture that’s designed to meet the specific challenges of modern applications, emerging threats and the nuances of supporting and protecting a hybrid workforce. In this webinar from Palo Alto Networks and HMG Strategy, you’ll discover: How the concept behind Zero Trust has evolved since the shift to hybrid work Where ZTNA 1.0 capabilities fall short and why the transition to a ZTNA 2.0 architecture is needed now How a ZTNA 2.0 architecture can provide greater visibility and control of data Examples of top-tier companies that have adopted a ZTNA 2.0 architecture and the security and productivity benefits they’re achieving
