Organizations are tasked with the continuous challenge of having to keep up with advancing cyber threats and must change their security strategies for them to remain secure. Zero Trust Security is a response that demands identity validation from all users, devices, and networks, thus eliminating implicit trust altogether.
For infrastructure and operations (I&O) teams, the transition from legacy architectures to a modern zero trust architecture is far from straightforward. Teams often face a complex patchwork of fragmented and siloed systems of different vintages, along with the challenge of managing dozens of disparate security and networking vendors.
As cybersecurity becomes increasingly complex, having a centralized team of experts driving continuous innovation and improvement in their Zero Trust journey is invaluable. A Zero Trust Center of Excellence (CoE) can serve as the hub of expertise, driving the organization's strategy in its focus area, standardizing best practices, fostering innovation, and providing training.
