Two pioneers of zero-trust security, Alex Philips (CIO of NOV) and Craig Clay (Former Lead Connectivity Architect at Shell and a Zscaler CXO Advisor), share invaluable lessons and insights about their past and present secure digital transformations.

Infrastructure modernization efforts don’t always need a top-down mandate to succeed or get off the ground. Some initiatives start in the middle and work up and down the hierarchy, building support. That is often the case for architectures based on zero trust, given the transformational impact it can have across several departments and use cases. In this panel, learn how two executive leaders commenced initiatives where security wasn’t the impetus and discover how successful journeys:

  • Involve multiple incremental projects that lead to your architecture or transformation goal
  • Make a case for and deeply integrate silos across IAM, operations, endpoint, network, and security
  • Prioritize interoperability across technologies and ecosystem players so that your modernization  coexists with incumbent and future solutions
