Ep. 206 Dynamic Security: Central to Achieving Zero Trust


Listen Later

As cyber threats grow more sophisticated, federal agencies need security that can think on its feet. 

 

This week on Feds At The Edge, we explore how agencies are evolving toward Zero Trust by implementing dynamic security—a flexible approach that adjusts access and authentication in real time based on context and behavior.   

 

Justin Chin, Director of the Government Solutions Segment at Ping Identity, opens with a relatable example: when your bank flags suspicious login activity and adds a second layer of authentication. That adaptive friction is dynamic security in action. 

 

Federal agencies face unique challenges based on their IT architectures. Paul Blahusch, CISO at Dept of Labor, explains how a centralized system allows broad, consistent policy enforcement. In contrast, Elizabeth Schweinsberg, Sr. Technical Advisor for CMS, shares how her agency’s federated model requires a more tailored approach to dynamic security. 

 

Tune in on your favorite podcast platform today for insights into the different paths agencies are taking, why enterprise structure matters, and how collaboration is key to building secure, adaptive systems that support the Zero Trust journey.
