Cybersecurity buzzwords tend to go through a process. They're used as a differentiator. Then everyone adopts them and things get out of control. The term Zero Trust originally gained traction in InfoSec thanks to the model designed by John Kindervag during his time at Forrester. These days, you could be seeing the term Zero Trust because:

1. a vendor makes a product that fits into any one of dozens of categories that contribute to a Zero Trust architecture (IAM, MFA, ZTNA, micro segmentation, directory services, etc)

2. a vendor is using 'zero trust' as a metaphor (small z, small t)

3. a vendor is using 'zero trust' as a philosophy, or company principle (small z, small t)

4. the CMO said it needs to be somewhere on the website for SEO

5. someone told a founder to put it in the sales and/or pitch deck

Steve joins us to separate the cyber virtue signaling from the truth of what Zero Trust actually looks like, why it's difficult, and what impact federal interest in Zero Trust will have on this trend.

With an alarming increase in K-12 cybersecurity attacks, districts are considering new ways to protect their students and staff. With the need to increase the cybersecurity talent pipeline, the solution to the problem is much larger than just increasing protective technology measures to keep schools safe. Schools must also be proactive in training the next generation of cybersecurity experts.

Developers ignore security issues. But can we really blame them? After all, security folks bombard them with an endless stream of issues that need to be addressed with no way for them to separate what's actually critical from all the noise, all while they are expected to release software more frequently and faster than ever before. It makes sense why developers view security as something that just gets in their way and slows them down. To make application security easy, we must make it developer-first. This is the future of AppSec.
