Over the past 18 months, the cybersecurity threat landscape has evolved at breakneck pace. The rapid expansion of remote working, coupled with accelerated digital transformation and the evaporation of traditional perimeters, has created a large, fertile attack surface for cyber threat actors.
In this environment, Zero Trust and Australia’s Essential Eight risk mitigation strategies are being embraced and leaned into more heavily than ever to better manage cyber risk. In fact, a Zero Trust framework can be mapped against the cyber risk mitigation strategies of the Essential Eight. To support these efforts, many organisations are turning to Privileged Access Management (PAM).
Join Scott Hesford, Director of Solutions Engineering, APJ, BeyondTrust and guest speaker Jinan Budge, Principal Analyst, Forrester in this on-demand webinar where they discuss how using a Zero Trust model can help your Essential Eight endeavours.
Attend the webinar to learn:
- The business benefits of adopting a Zero Trust model or the Essential Eight
- The challenges of Essential Eight compliance
- The role of PAM in Zero Trust
- How to move from compliance-as-a-strategy to meaningful business outcomes
This promises to be an informative session that will assist you as you plan your Zero Trust or Essential Eight project.
