Organizations are feeling a shift in the world of networking and security as they rapidly adopt and embrace the cloud. On-premises private data centers are no longer the place for data and workloads to exist. With this shift, security and networking are brought closer than ever. Enterprises need speed, visibility, security and reliability without compromise. Enter, the secure access service edge, better known as SASE. This evolved concept of cloud security architecture outlines a convergence of multiple security functions to offer identity-based secure access. How can your organization best position itself for the transition?

In this session, you will discuss:

  • Problems SASE can address in the modern enterprise
  • Benefits of moving to a SASE architecture
  • Insights from organizations adopting SASE today

Wyndham Hotels and Resorts

The cloud and mobility are powerful enablers of digital transformation, but many organizations are grappling with legacy architectures that haven't evolved much in decades. With most applications in the cloud and employees working remotely, legacy network and security models are not only ineffective, but they hinder your ability to take advantage of the agility, productivity, efficiency, and speed enabled by digital transformation. Network and security architectures need to evolve to securely connect any entities — users, devices, applications — to meet business needs in the digital era.

In this session, Zscaler CEO Jay Chaudhry talks with CISO Eric Brohm, who will discuss how Wyndham's digital transformation has made the company more resilient, enabling its entire staff to work remotely with minimal disruption and no compromising on security.

  • “Owning the moment” — IT’s opportunity to accelerate secure digital transformation
  • Best practices for securing work-from-anywhere using Gartner’s secure access service edge (SASE) and zero trust network access (ZTNA) frameworks
  • What comes next — IT’s new role as strategic business enabler
