The Conrad

This episode, featuring hosts Tom Tittermary and Tom Gianelos with special Zscaler guest Conrad Maiorino, explores how Zero Trust eliminates network access points by making applications unreachable, as opposed to traditional security. They discuss Zscaler Private Access (ZPA) and Zscaler Internet Access (ZIA), which are used for secure, mutually authenticated user-to-application tunnels, disrupting adversary tactics.
The discussion highlights Zscaler's solution for "Denied, Deprecated, Intermittent or Low Bandwidth" (DDIL/CDOL) scenarios, ensuring secure access even without constant cloud connectivity. The speakers also cover integrating Zscaler with identity providers for policy building based on user attributes and why this Zero Trust security is valuable for the DoD and other critical sectors like hospitals and manufacturing.
This episode is perfect for cybersecurity professionals, especially those working with or for the Department of Defense, IT leaders and network architects looking to implement or deepen their understanding of Zero Trust principles. Listen today!
