Zero trust is in the news quite a bit recently, with NIST even coming out with their own guide just a year ago. Do you think this is really a new topic or more of a maturation of older processes?
It seems like every breach we hear Zero Trust could have prevented x, y, and z - Do you think Zero Trust has the potential to mitigate breaches, or at least minimize their impact?
I see Zero trust typically talked about as only applying to layer 7 in the osi model. Do you think that's true? Or do you see the general concepts as applying to more layers as a defense in depth strategy?
