Zero Trust: Begin Your Journey with These First Steps

If you’ve ever wished someone would explain zero trust to you in plain English, you're not alone. It can be hard to cut through the noise and understand what it really means. Widespread overuse and misuse of the term often leave IT professionals searching for clear explanations and actionable guidance. 

The good news is: Zscaler is here to help. 

Zero trust is critically important for the future of IT security. We at Zscaler are passionate about demystifying the phrase, and we’re always looking to train the next wave of zero trust ambassadors who can help their organizations understand and implement the architecture. 

Our new, three-part webinar series, Zero Trust, from Theory to Practice, is designed to explain what zero trust is really all about. We’re breaking down complex concepts and removing the jargon with an approachable, entry-level path to zero trust. 

The series focuses on both basic education as well as action. Participants progressively evolve from zero trust learners to zero trust implementers through structured sessions that guide them every step of the way. 

For those who make it through the entire series, there are special “Zero Trust Ambassador” rewards, including exclusive swag, a LinkedIn badge customized with their names on it, and a unique badge on Zenith Community. Be sure to start with part one and move sequentially through the series so that you don’t miss out on any of the content or the rewards.
