Helen Patton, Advisory CISO, CISCO Secure

In this roundtable session, participants discussed the present and future of  Zero Trust framework:

• Where are companies on their Zero Trust Journey
• What are the barriers to Zero Trust implementation

Rajan Barara, Director Product Management, Entrust

With the rise of remote working and the hybrid workforce, we can no longer bring security in the enterprise by modifying old perimeter-based security solutions. This is because the new hybrid workplace is no longer confined to the four walls of an office and on-premise datacenters.
In this session, participants learned how to empower and secure their workforce,  and simplify security for their IT teams, by using an identity centric approach with a Zero Trust framework.
They can then benefit from stronger security for critical assets, and greater worker productivity.

One of the main words that emerged in the post pandemic world is the word “Innovation”, especially in the IT and online industry.

In this session, Chris spoke about how all IT leaders are distinctively set to evolve into innovation leaders. They need to be competent enough and have the skills to envision and deliver technology-driven business change.
