Today, Zero Trust is a fuzzy term with more than a dozen different definitions. Any initial search for Zero Trust leads people to stumble upon technology associated with the concept, but this gives people the wrong impression and sets them off on the wrong foot in their adoption journey. Zero Trust is a concept and framework, not technology.
We are on a mission to give a stronger voice to practitioners and others who have been in these shoes, have begun adopting or implementing a Zero Trust strategy, and to share their experience and insight with peers while not influenced by vendor hype.

Season 3, Episode 11: Vulnerability management is critical to any Zero Trust strategy, but you probably already know that. Fortra’s Tyler Reguly breaks down severity vs. risk.
Catch this episode on YouTube, Apple, Spotify, or Amazon. You can read the show notes here.
Every organization relies on some form of technology to run, and each tool you add increases the risk of vulnerabilities causing problems. If you don’t stay on top of patching, you increase the odds of a bad actor finding their way more easily within your network.
This week, we chat with Tyler Reguly, a senior manager of security research at Fortra, who shares insights from his 18 years in vulnerability management. Tyler discusses the importance of staying on top of patching to maintain a Zero Trust strategy, the differences between vulnerability and patch management, and emphasizes that the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) measures severity, not risk.
We also briefly nerd out about the significance of groups like the Canadian Cyber Threat Exchange (CCTX) for knowledge sharing and collaboration in cybersecurity. And then, we wrap things up by exploring the efficacy of existing security policies and benchmarks, such as CIS and DISA STIGs, and the role of vendor relationships in maintaining effective security practices.
