Threat protection, transformation, soft skills, and diversity: the true mesh facing CXOs
Christopher Jablonski | Editor in Chief, CXO REvolutionaries
As they challenge the status quo and push their organizations to be more flexible and agile, leaders like CIO Hanna Hennig tactfully implement change and overcome barriers. Hennig and other influential experts like Michelle King, academic researcher and former Chief Diversity Officer at Netflix, covered these topics at last month’s Women in IT Executive Conference – EMEA. The lessons shared about how decades-old thinking is still driving work culture and what to do about it, and the importance of respecting all identities and using soft skills are essential to all progressive executives. Watch the on-demand event.
The first global Zscaler Virtual CXO Summit, Resilience Against Ransomware: Zero Trust Best Practices for Threat Protection, took place last month and included keynotes from the first female White House CIO, Theresa Payton and Nicole Perlroth, New York Times cybersecurity reporter and author. Joined by Zscaler executives, CXO REvolutionaries, and customers, the event was a tour de force of insights and expertise for how to put a stop to the threat. Watch the on-demand event.
In addition to fortifying your security defenses and planning for a new generation of threats and applying zero trust principles, the public and private sectors need to cooperate and everyone needs to share threat information if we are to strengthen our interconnected security posture and overall resiliency. The journey will be bumpy and expect more high-profile attacks given how actors like nation-states are seizing opportunities like zero days for sabotage, manipulation, and political advantage.

From the Office of the CTO:
How zero trust stops ransomware in a nutshell
Adversaries use encrypted channels completely undetected across traditional network technology to unleash attacks across common cloud-based apps. Traditional firewalls were never designed to inspect SSL traffic so it is bypassed. The best defense comes down to a modern architecture that allows you to
prevent compromise, prevent lateral movement, and prevent data loss. Zscaler’s cloud-native Zero Trust Exchange accomplishes all three, as depicted in the diagram below.
