Event Description
The hallmark of Zero Trust is simple. You can’t automatically trust anyone or anything, even if they’ve already gained access. Until you know what assets are in your environment, it’s impossible to know if they’re supposed to be in the environment in the first place. As one of the first steps to Zero Trust, establishing an ongoing asset discovery and inventory process is fundamental to addressing IT, IOT, and OT gaps. In summary, a trusted system of record for all digital assets across the ARMY reduces cyber risk and costs by improving IT inventory accountability for our customers and ecosystem partners. Join ThunderCat’s Cyber CTO as we discuss how we look at zero-trust as a culture and:

• Proactively help our customers blend this zero-trust culture into their existing defensive cyber architectures.
• Assist our customers and partners in assessing their current ZT capabilities, gaps, and toolsets to fill those gaps.
• Help our customers and partners in choosing the right solutions that meet multiple security objectives.
