This is a very interesting way to think and talk about security. Think of all the improvements or alignments that have been "saved for a later time." This is a compounding risk. I appreciated how this highlighted the fact that leaders aren't the only ones accumulating this technical debt, as teams across an organization can contribute to this issue the longer they put off an update, policy change, or procedure. Leaders need to be aware of the underlying risks seemingly invisible on the surface. Using strategies to combat underutilization can help combat the issues brought about by blind spots in detection, architecture, and engineering. Managed services are a great way to accelerate the reduction of technical debt. Ericka Chickowski, CSO Online #Cybersecurity #Leadership #CISO

Zero Trust is not a product.
There are vendors who will try to tell you that Zero Trust is something you buy—a product, a piece of technology, a quick fix... [Run] ⛔ And then there are the companies that architect their entire platform around the Zero Trust pillars, consult with Zero Trust founders, and relentlessly preach that Zero Trust is a FRAMEWORK—NOT a product to sell. We fall into the second camp, and this blog explains why, pillar by pillar. This piece was written by an actual security practitioner with 30+ years of systems engineering. John Martinez knows Zero Trust. Self-educate: https://bit.ly/4b5yIAC #ZeroTrust #NSA #ZeroTrustMaturity #ElephantInTheRoom
