Zero Trust and the Pentagon’s Identity-Centric Security Roadmap

Wednesday, July 21, 2021

Hosted By: BeyondTrust, SailPoint Technologies, UberEther & Carahsoft

Summary

 

 

 

The seismic shift to distributed workforces has dissolved the Defense Department’s traditional network perimeter and put a focus on a new critical aspect of cybersecurity: identity management. With users and devices now accessing critical information, systems, and applications from anywhere, the mindset must be to never trust and always verify.

In this new environment, a Zero Trust approach can help agencies minimize their attack surface and cyber risk. Brandon Iske, Chief Engineer for the Security Enablers Portfolio at DISA, Josh Brodbent, Director of Public Sector Solutions Engineering at BeyondTrust, and Frank Briguglio, Global Public Sector Strategist at SailPoint, along with moderator Matt Topper, President and Solutions Catalyst at UberEther will discuss how to build an effective Zero Trust approach with an emphasis on identity and privilege access management.

"We're always trying to bring the department together, but there are certain cases where that's just not always feasible. And so the interoperability of some of these Zero Trust concepts, and the solutions that enable them is very much a concern from our vantage point as well." - Brandon Iske, Chief Engineer for the Security Enablers Portfolio, DISA.
