This webinar has ended. To get the details of the presentation, simply complete this short form. 

While information security has always been a priority for all levels of government, the increased adoption of cloud computing, the acceleration of hybrid work and digitization of services has made traditional security architectures ineffective or even obsolete.

Zero Trust is a set of principles that can help your organization to develop a modern, agile, effective security architecture. At the center of any Zero Trust initiative are your identity controls and understanding how these controls are applied to a Zero Trust architecture is a key first step in securing your organization.

Even as Zero Trust becomes increasingly referenced in project requirements and client interactions, many government agencies find it challenging to understand and implement zero trust principles. So, what does it mean? How can your existing identity controls be leveraged to help meet zero trust? How can you measure the success of your IAM solution?

Join KeyData for this interactive webinar to understand the practical definition of Zero Trust along with examples and best practices illustrating why identity controls are critical to meeting your infosec goals.

Key Takeaways:

1. Understanding Zero Trust at both the Executive level and Architect level

2. How to plan for and align your identity program with Zero Trust principles

3. Some real-world examples of using Identity controls with Zero Trust design principles to modernize your security architecture
