Topic: Ethical Hacking Meets Zero Trust: Securing the Modern Perimeter
Abstract: As cyber threats grow more sophisticated, traditional perimeter-based security models are no longer sufficient. The current webinar aims to explore the role of ethical hacking techniques in establishing Zero Trust Network security across the organization’s digital infrastructure. The webinar discusses how ethical hacking can be aligned with Zero Trust and identity-driven security to proactively identify vulnerabilities, validate controls, and strengthen organizational defenses. Join us to gain insights into how red teaming, penetration testing, and threat simulations can support continuous verification and adaptive trust models in modern hybrid environments.
Key Takeaways:
- Understanding the Intersection ethical hacking and ZTNA
- Challenges of evolving cloud-native and remote-first environments.
- Applications of red teaming to validate Zero Trust implementations.
- Tools and methodologies involved with ethical hackers for ZTNA
- Understand ethical hacking’s role to help organizations move to proactive security
