You’re invited to join Carolina Advanced Digital and Zscaler for our “It Starts with Zero” webinar on Thursday. May 19 at 10:00am ET
Zero trust is based on the principle that no entity—user, device, or application—should be inherently trusted. Instead, access is granted using identity and business policy, and it changes based on context. By removing access and security from the constructs of the network, zero trust reduces complexity and increases security.
Join us for a discussion on the topics below:
- Modernizing your network to reduce technical debt and cut networking costs for internet-bound traffic
- Strengthening security posture by implementing a zero trust approach
- Empowering work from anywhere with a better user experience and more visibility
- Securely providing corporate access to any user on any device from any location
- Promoting alignment between IT objectives and business initiatives
