For our October meeting J. Wolfgang Goerlich, Advisory CISO for Duo Security, presented “Zero Trust; Past, Present, Future”.
“Data breaches grab headlines. Good security is steady. While many industries have adopted zero-trust strategies to address challenges of the expanded perimeter, many have been wary of this trend and questioned if it is a fit for environments. As this session will cover, new strategies remain firmly rooted in tried-and-true best practices admins have followed for decades. The principles of logical segmentation, least-permissive access, economy of mechanism, adaptive policy controls, and strong authentication are simply evolving to accommodate new use cases rather than being replaced. Join this session for a grounded discussion of the unique needs and concerns for IT and IT Security teams based on real-world examples, and how concepts like device trust and context-aware access can improve security design without leaving crucial inherited or legacy systems out in the cold.”
Prior to his role at Duo Security, Wolfgang led IT and IT security in the healthcare and financial services verticals. He has held VP positions at several consulting firms, leading advisory and assessment practices.
