Organizations are responding to the changing cybersecurity landscape. And zero trust is at the heart of this change, with 68% of respondents saying they’re planning or actively working towards adopting a zero trust access model. In collaboration with Cybersecurity Insiders, Ivanti surveyed 421 US-based IT and cybersecurity professionals to identify the latest enterprise adoption trends, challenges, gaps and solution preferences related to zero trust security.

Have you ever wondered how to keep your digital assets truly secure in a world where cyber threats seem to evolve quicker than cybersecurity measures? If so, you might want to consider adopting a Zero Trust security model. Far from being a buzzword, Zero Trust has emerged as a holistic approach to cybersecurity that operates on a straightforward principle: “Never Trust, Always Verify”.

Zero trust isn’t an approach that can be delivered by buying a single product that claims to provide it. Instead, it is an approach that needs to be understood and implemented in complementary ways across an organization’s IT systems. We recently hosted a webinar titled Applying Zero Trust to Data Centre Networks to provide guidance on how organizations can use zero trust to enhance the security of their IT systems. The webinar details are below, after a summary of the topics covered.

Automation has become a game changer for businesses seeking efficiency and scalability in a rather unclear and volatile macroeconomic landscape. Streamlining processes, improving productivity, and reducing incidence for human error are just a few benefits that automation brings. However, as organizations embrace automation, it’s crucial to ensure modern security measures are in place to protect these new and evolving assets.

The zero trust security model is an approach to network security that enforces strict access controls and authentication at every stage of the software development lifecycle. It treats every user, device, and transaction as a security risk and uses the principle of least privilege to restrict access to sensitive resources and minimize the potential attack surface.

There are plenty of IT horror stories out there that show just how catastrophic cyberattacks can be for businesses. In addition, the amount of cyberattacks that occur is increasing year by year. Internet users worldwide saw approximately 52 million data breaches during the second quarter of 2022, as shown by Statista’s 2022 cybercrime review. To fight these cyberattacks and protect their businesses, organizations have adopted the zero trust model.

Be sure to register for the launch webinar on Thursday, March 30th to learn more about the latest release from the PagerDuty Operations Cloud. Rundeck by PagerDuty has long helped organizations bridge operational silos and automate away IT tasks so teams can focus more time on building and less time putting out fires. And while this mission still rings true today, our vision is to extend this reality and revolutionize all operations while continuing to build trust.
