Against a backdrop of rapid digital transformation, zero trust has emerged as the ideal framework for securing enterprise users, workloads and devices in their highly distributed cloud and mobile-centric world.
And IT leaders globally are waking up to this, as zero trust moves into the mainstream – disrupting decades of legacy security and networking principles.
More than 90% of those IT leaders that have started their migration to the cloud have implemented, or are in the process of implementing, a zero trust security strategy in the next year. That’s according to the findings of our latest global survey, which sought insights from over 1,900 CIOs, CISOs, CDO, CTOs and Heads of Infrastructure, from organizations that have already begun migrating applications and services to the cloud.
This is good progress, and the reasons behind it show continued optimism for the implementation of a zero trust architecture beyond the next 12 months.
