Zero Trust, with Zero Exceptions

Our perception of work has now evolved from a place we go to an activity we can do anywhere. This shift in perception has also given us a glimpse of the future of work, with agencies of all sizes adopting a cloud-first approach for greater flexibility, scalability and resiliency to support their hybrid workforces. However, legacy approaches and existing ZTNA 1.0 solutions aren’t aligned to these new business needs and fail to adequately secure today’s work-from-anywhere users and direct-to-app architectures. Discussion topics will include: How our environment has changed and why ZTNA 1.0 falls short in securing today’s hybrid workforces Core tenants of ZTNA 2.0 and how they solve today’s security challenges Key use cases to help you get started on your ZTNA 2.0 journey

Attended the C-Vision International CISO Dinner last night and to sum it up in one word, "Wow!" Incredibly well moderated discussion and investigation into different viewpoints. I appreciate the openness of all the attendees to share their unique experiences and perspectives. I learned a lot, had a ton of fun, and look forward to further events like this!

Recently updated my "event vendors I will NEVER work with again" list, DM me if you're interested in the names and stories. On the other hand, I want to recommend Nelson Soares and C-Vision International who are true partners to our success, and I really enjoy working with. Happy to also share the great list of vendors we liked, as there are many of them, and we've recently had the pleasure of joining wonderful events, which we immediately renewed.

The day was awesome and the evening exceeded my wildest expectations. I've never been to a dinner like that where a table with 12 CIOs/CISOs was focused exclusively on Netskope. Just fantastic.
Thank you for including me!
I look forward to the next time we have the opportunity to meet

I had the pleasure of joining the C-Vision International, Nordics CISO Council Roundtable with a wonderful group of cyber executives. We had a wonderful, insightful conversation and the whole experience was enjoyable. I made great new contacts and reconnected with existing contacts on really important topics that matter to CISO’s and all in cybersecurity. I’d highly recommend joining in any C-Vision event.
