The world is more connected than ever thanks to the proliferation of Internet of Things (IoT), connected edge computing devices and the technology that facilitates communication between devices.
Additionally, the term Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is used to describe devices and sensors in manufacturing and industrial processes. Then there’s operational technology (OT), a specific category of hardware and software that controls the performance of physical devices.
Recently, cloud security provider Zscaler introduced its Zero Trust Certified Architect (ZTCA) certification. The program is designed to help network and security professionals learn critical skills and also validate their expertise.
The concept of DevSecOps is simple: By integrating security into the DevOps process, businesses introduce security earlier in the software development lifecycle, enabling cyber protection to “shift left,” reducing risks and eliminating costly rework.
At its recent Zenith Live conference, cloud security provider Zscaler launched its new cloud native application protection platform (CNAPP) solution, called Posture Control.
For those not familiar with CNAPP, it’s a consolidation of different point products that businesses use to achieve their cloud security objectives. CNAPP makes Information security (InfoSec) teams more efficient in public cloud risk mitigation by pulling in signals from different sources to help identify and prioritize vulnerabilities.
Ransomware is on the rise and it’s coming from multiple sources. Additionally, whether the goal is to collect ransom for data or disrupt a company’s supply chain, these attacks are growing in sophistication.
Zscaler is a security company that closely follows existing and emerging cyberthreats. Zscaler’s Zero Trust Exchange is a security cloud that processes more than 200 billion transactions and 150 million blocked attacks daily. This integrated platform of services protects users and workloads using zero trust, which involves applying security policies to control access.
