Securing AI in Motion: Gigamon Deep Observability for WWT ARMOR
Gain insights into Gigamon's role in strengthening AI security through improved network visibility, alongside WWT's AI Readiness Model for Operational Resilience (ARMOR) framework. Kent Noyes (WWT), Bassam Khan (Gigamon), and Istvan Berko (WWT) discuss how rapid AI adoption is expanding the attack surface and why organizations need governance, data controls, and visibility into data flows to innovate securely. The session outlines ARMOR's focus areas (including governance/compliance, model protection, data security operations, and secure development lifecycle) and explains how Gigamon's east-west traffic visibility and metadata extraction can support detection, investigations, and AI-driven analytics for SOC and operational use cases.

AI Security Is Now a Machine-Speed Problem
AI has moved the security goalposts. Organizations are being asked to pour more data into models to unlock value, while attackers use those same techniques to move at machine speed. In this episode of the AI Proving Ground Podcast, Fortinet's Aamir Lakhani and WWT's Dave Pisarek deliver a CISO-level playbook for enabling AI at scale while defending against AI-driven attacks — by tightening visibility and governance (especially for agents and shadow AI), modernizing identity and using automation to defend at machine speed without abandoning security fundamentals.
Partner POV | Insights for 2026 from Forescout CEO, Barry Mainz
In 2026, Forescout and partners will tackle accelerated AI-driven threats with Universal Zero Trust Network Access, transforming defense strategies. By embedding operational AI, enhancing visibility, and ensuring quantum readiness, they aim to shift from reactive to proactive security, empowering partners to secure faster and adapt to evolving challenges in a complex digital landscape.
Zscaler Zero Trust Lab
Zscaler is responsible for securing more than 400 of the Forbes Global 2000 companies. They provide security as a service delivered through a purpose-built, globally distributed platform. The focus of this lab is zero trust access utilizing a solution known as Zscaler Private Access (ZPA). ZPA is a cloud service that provides seamless, zero trust access to private applications running on public cloud or within the data center. With ZPA, applications don't need to be exposed to the internet, making them completely invisible to unauthorized users. This service enables the applications to connect to users via inside-out connectivity versus extending the network to them. It disrupts legacy approaches to remote access such as traditional VPN, establishing per-service dynamic encryption and trust evaluation.
