Security News > 2024 > June > How AI-powered attacks are accelerating the shift to zero trust strategies

In this Help Net Security interview, Jenn Markey, Advisor to The Entrust Cybersecurity Institute, discusses the increasing adoption of enterprise-wide zero trust strategies in response to evolving cyber threats.

Two-thirds of organizations featured in the 2024 State of Zero Trust & Encryption study cited cyber-risk concerns as the main drivers for implementing a zero-trust strategy.

There is a striking disparity in zero trust adoption rates, with U.S. organizations lagging.

CISA's Zero Trust Maturity Model 2.0 and the recently released NIST Cybersecurity Framework 2.0 both provide useful guidance to navigate an organization's zero trust journey.

Finally, identity - user and machine - is the lynchpin of zero trust.

Currently, there are very different approaches around the globe from the EU's pro-regulatory stance with Digital Identity regulation and AI Act to a more pro-innovation approach being led by big tech companies in the US. How this plays out will shape the future of zero trust and cybersecurity for generations to come.
