Fear: Overlooking Zero Trust
Tina Gravel, senior vice president of channels and alliances for Appgate (the vendor treats threat protection from the premise that everyone and everything on the network poses a threat and cannot be trusted until it has been verified):
Zero trust is something that everyone wants to discuss but few fully understand. It is a complex and wide-ranging topic and as such, it also represents an opportunity for channel partners to help their customers navigate what it is and how best to practically apply it in their operating environment. But channel partners need to understand that zero trust is not just about technology and tools – it’s as much about having the right methodologies and processes to support this new type of approach to cybersecurity.
