Get Proactive with Securing Your Cloud | WWT Experts

Event Overview

As organizations continue to push critical workloads to the cloud, how do they know their valuable data will remain secure? Historically an afterthought, cloud security has become a non-negotiable component of successful cloud transformation. When done right, cloud security gives organizations the confidence to mature and scale cloud capabilities at the speed of their business. When done wrong, cloud security can leave organizations vulnerable and exposed to elevated levels of risk. Join WWT Senior Director of Cloud Security Kent Noyes as he talks about the fundamentals of a high-functioning cloud security program. During this episode, Kent identifies best practices he's seeing in the market and tackles the ever-evolving solution landscape, such as Cloud Security Posture Manager (CSPM), SaaS Security Posture Manager (SSPM), Cloud Infrastructure Entitlements Management (CIEM) and Cloud Workload Protection Platform (CWPP).

Zero Trust

Zscaler Zero Trust Lab

Zscaler is responsible for securing more than 400 of the Forbes Global 2000 companies. They provide security as a service delivered through a purpose-built, globally distributed platform. The focus of this lab is zero trust access utilizing a solution known as Zscaler Private Access (ZPA). ZPA is a cloud service that provides seamless, zero trust access to private applications running on public cloud or within the data center. With ZPA, applications don't need to be exposed to the internet, making them completely invisible to unauthorized users. This service enables the applications to connect to users via inside-out connectivity versus extending the network to them. It disrupts legacy approaches to remote access such as traditional VPN, establishing per-service dynamic encryption and trust evaluation.

Cloud Security

Is Your Data Secure in the Cloud? | Research

Now that they're in the cloud, many organizations are asking whether their rush to migrate all workloads and applications was really best for the long-term success of the business. Cloud security plays a big part in that consideration. So, how should organizations think about this balancing act between "embracing everything cloud" vs "protecting their most valuable data"? Has the recent acceleration in cloud adoption changed the traditional function/role of security teams? Join Clint Huffaker, WWT's Application and API Security Lead, as he shares valuable context related to those questions. He also dives into what an ideal cloud security program looks like, why cloud developers are being asked to "shift left," and what steps leaders can take now to help cloud security enable the business and unlock the full value promised by investment in the cloud.
