Fortinet Security POC – Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA)
In March 2023, a Fortinet ZTNA proof of concept test (POC) was completed in the WWT Advanced Technology Center. Here, we present a summary of the testing and results.
Guarding the Cyber Fortress: Zero Trust vs. Segmentation
In the realm of cybersecurity, terms like zero trust and segmentation are often intertwined, but they should not be used interchangeably. Zero trust is a comprehensive security strategy based on the principle that no asset or entity is explicitly trusted, whereas segmentation is a tactical approach used within the zero trust framework. Let's explore how segmentation functions as a part of tero trust and why distinguishing between these terms is critical.
The Grizzled CyberVet: State of Network Security
Network security has evolved rapidly, with the field now embracing zero trust, AI-driven defenses and integrated platforms. The next five years will see AI, SASE and quantum-resistant cryptography reshape the landscape. Enterprises must consolidate tools, adopt AI automation and prioritize identity-first security to stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. Secure your future now.
Understanding the Cybersecurity Kill Chain: A Simple Guide
As part of the "Grizzled CyberVet: Practical Cybersecurity" collection, we examine the cybersecurity kill chain. We simplify and explain this model used by attackers to compromise your digital ecosystem.
A CTO'S Primer on Zero Trust: Part 1 - Understanding the Fundamentals
Zero trust revolutionized cybersecurity by assuming threats can originate from anywhere, emphasizing "never trust, always verify." This approach focuses on protecting critical assets through iterative inspection and stringent access policies. By integrating modern technologies, zero trust enhances both security and business resilience, making it a compelling strategy for today's digital landscape.
Achieve Zero Trust Segmentation with Illumio: Now Available in WWT's Advanced Technology Center
We are excited to announce the availability of Illumio in WWT's Advanced Technology Center (ATC). This hands-on experience will empower you to seamlessly implement Zero Trust principles and enhance your security posture.
Zero Trust: Fact or Fiction?
The excitement surrounding Zero Trust has made it challenging to distinguish fact from fiction. Zero Trust taken literally is not feasible, as trust is a fundamental aspect of cybersecurity. However, implementing Zero Trust principles is achievable. At WWT, our Zero Trust Team adopts a practical approach to help organizations separate Zero Trust facts from fiction.
Segmentation: A Critical Pillar of Cybersecurity in the Zero Trust Era
As cybersecurity threats increase, organizations are adopting segmentation—a core element of the Zero Trust security model—to better protect sensitive data and critical infrastructure.
Trust No One: Why Zero Trust is the Only Way Forward in Cybersecurity
High-profile cyber breaches at Colonial Pipeline, 23andMe, and MGM Resorts underscore the urgent need for robust cybersecurity. The Zero Trust model, emphasizing "never trust, always verify," offers a comprehensive defense by continuously authenticating users and devices, thereby mitigating sophisticated threats and ensuring data security in an evolving digital landscape.
A CTO'S Primer on Zero Trust: Part 2 - Overcoming Implementation Challenges
Zero trust shifts from traditional network defenses to nuanced, controlled security, but integrating legacy systems and creating precise access policies pose significant challenges. Success requires strategic planning and collaboration, balancing security with usability. The journey to Zero Trust demands foresight, technical rigor and commitment to a resilient security posture.
