Back in the day when your users were all on the network and your applications resided in your physical data centre, it made sense to establish a secure perimeter around your network. But those days are over, the perimeter is gone, and network security is all but irrelevant.


Instead, you need to put your defenses and controls where the connections occur— the internet — so that every connection is fast and secure, no matter how or where users connect or where their applications reside. Embrace Zero Trust to make the cloud a safe place and as an effective approach in today’s cloud-first world.


By moving applications and infrastructure to the cloud and untethering employees from their desks, you can realise tremendous advantages in productivity, agility, and cost containment. With our 100% cloud-built secure platform, Zscaler can help you make the move to the cloud, securely.

Despite constantly preparing for security breaches, attacks, and outages, businesses don't always understand the full impact of these incidents. In this webinar, we’ll explore how the impact associated with existing threats affect cost and downtime, and how to measure and quantify those costs so they can be reported to corporate. A better understanding of your risk assessment will allow you to implement technologies and processes tailored to your own environment more effectively.

Tune into this webinar and you'll: 
 • Understand the risk factors of paying or not paying a ransomware attacker.
 • Assess the costs of downtime - your own, as well as those of your partners and providers.
 • Translate the languages spoken by both your cybersecurity team and your finance team.
 • Know how to make smarter, more strategic IT investments.

Your Enterprise Cyber Risk Assessment

Our world is changing. New business needs, cloud adoption, threat landscape
volatility, privacy and regulatory requirements and general IT consumerization
among others. To meet these rapidly changing requirements, we need a highly
flexible and dynamic architecture. The architecture should enable quicker adoption
of new devices, use models, and capabilities; provide security across an increasingly
complex landscape. The architecture moves away from the traditional enterprise
trust model, which is binary and static.

In this session, we will explore how this architecture:
1. Is designed to prevent risk, reduce our attack surface and improve survivability with the current threat landscape
2. Introduces a dynamic, multi-tiered trust model that can enforce granular and context-based access control
3. Integrates into your organizational ecosystem

Accelerating Transformation with the Zero Trust Exchange

Interest in zero trust security initiatives is at an all-time high, with 72% of companies prioritizing zero trust adoption. IT leaders are using the momentum of the pandemic and remote work to future proof their hybrid workforces for the long term.

Security and user experience are critical aspects of a productive hybrid workforce. With this in mind, companies are looking beyond VPNs for secure remote access in their efforts to bring people back to the office while allowing for work-from-anywhere.

Join our on-demand webinar to learn why your organization needs to retire its VPN and switch to a zero trust model for improved remote and in-office experiences.

You’ll learn:
• Why VPNs won’t stand the test of time
• Reasons to take a zero trust approach for private app access
• Zero trust access use cases
• Understanding universal ZTA and its benefits

Beyond the VPN: Why IT is Switching to ZeroTrust to Support Hybrid Work

Around the world, organizations struggle with the unknowns that define ransomware. Who will be next? How bad will it be? How will attackers breach systems to plant the ransomware seed?

Ransomware preparedness needs to be elevated to a strategic level with a multi-layered set of strategies, something even non-technical, C-suite executives have come to realize. The first layer involves securing human behavior, often the weakest link. Then there’s the broad layer of automated tools that enable continuous monitoring and security services that plug vulnerabilities. Finally, when the inevitable happens, organizations need backup and recovery tools that enable fast and complete recovery from even the worst attacks.

Listen in to understand how to be prepared against ransomware attacks.

Stop Lateral Movement to Mitigate Ransomware Attacks

Businesses have significantly changed since the introduction of the firewall. Today's enterprise employees can work anywhere and everywhere—at a home office, in shared workspaces, branch offices, and beyond—as long as there's an internet connection and a power source.

Implementing zero trust has become essential to securing users and applications effectively, but Firewalls, VPNs and other legacy security solutions cannot deliver true zero trust.

This upcoming webinar featuring Zscaler Sr. Product Marketing Managers Ankit Gupta and Kamil Imtiaz will cover:

-Why zero trust is necessary for today's security challenges
-Why Firewalls and other legacy solutions are failing
-What it takes to correctly implement zero trust

Why Firewalls Cannot Do Zero Trust

"DNS is what makes the internet more human. We use it every day to access the internet, SaaS, and private applications. DNS on port 53 is as standard as HTTP/S on port 80/443 traffic and is commonly found in firewalls allow list. Unfortunately, it is the most loosely controlled and monitored traffic. Adversaries know this and use it to their advantage for undetected command and control (C2) communication. Traditional network-centric architecture is incapable of inspecting and stopping these types of tactics. A new approach to DNS security is needed for the cloud-first and mobile world.

Watch this webinar to hear from Stefan Sebastian, Principal Product Manager, Zscaler, and Amy Heng, Product Marketing Manager, Zscaler as they discuss the past, present, and future of DNS security, which includes topics such as:

• How DNS traffic has evolved over the year
• How threat actors abuse this widely used protocol
• Preventing attacks within DNS traffic using a zero trust approach
• Optimizing DNS traffic without compromising performance and user experience"

Stop DNS Abuse! Take Control with Superior Security

Today’s attackers leverage sophisticated techniques against their target organizations, using multiple attack vectors to exploit several security weaknesses. These weaknesses can include misconfigurations, unpatched vulnerabilities, overly permissive access policies, and more. Each may present only a low risk in isolation—but when combined, they create an exploitable chain of weaknesses that drive a high risk of breach.

Beyond Misconfigurations Correlating Threats to Truly Understand Your Cloud Risk

With so many teams working remotely, employees at home have become the new network perimeter. This flexible new definition of “workplace” and BYOD policies around personal devices, stretch potential attack surfaces even further.

These expanding threat landscapes are difficult to define and to protect, and phishing has become one of the most effective ways for attackers to gain access to a network. This makes the “human” element a vital consideration in a robust security program.

Hybrid, remote, or on-premises, if you work with humans, you are at risk for phishing. So, join us to learn more about the potential threats, trends, solutions and best practices for preventing phishing attacks in your organization.

Preventing Phishing Attacks

When organizations struggle to manage growing amounts of data, moving to the cloud can be a vital solution to scale infrastructure and manage data. However, regardless of where organizations are in their cloud journey, many lack visibility in the Cloud and are left vulnerable and unaware.

As the cloud remains an effective data storage solution, IT and security teams need to keep cloud visibility top of mind. With the right Zero Trust strategy organizations can discover and secure blind spots without adding cost and complexity. Discover how a Zero Trust strategy can benefit your organization’s data flow as panelists discuss:

- The growing need for Zero Trust and data loss prevention strategies in cloud
- How to easily integrate Zero Trust as a service and improve visibility into data flows
- How visibility into cloud is necessary to improve security posture and prevent data loss
