Building SASE That Actually Works: What Everyone Gets Wrong | Vishal Goyal | EP 106
Welcome to Musings from the Cyber Trench, the podcast that goes beyond surface-level conversations to explore the real-world challenges shaping public sector cybersecurity.
In this episode, host Vishal Masih is joined by Vishal Goyal, Vice President of Enterprise Architecture, for a deep dive into enterprise architecture, Zero Trust, and the realities of securing complex public-sector environments. With nearly two decades of international experience across consulting, engineering, and operations, Vishal Goyal shares how architecture decisions directly impact resilience, scalability, and security outcomes.
The conversation explores how cybersecurity strategy has evolved, why Zero Trust must be practical rather than theoretical, and how organizations can better align cloud, network, and security architectures. This episode also touches on stakeholder alignment, decision-making at scale, and what it takes to modernize legacy systems while maintaining trust and continuity. If you work in cybersecurity, enterprise architecture, or public-sector technology — or you’re navigating complex security transformations — this episode offers grounded insights from the front lines.
