In March 2023 Zscaler held its inaugural Public Sector Summit, bringing together over 500 government and industry leaders to separate zero trust fact from fiction. The exchange last year was enlightening and energizing! We captured highlights from the event in an eBook, The Power of Zero Trust, including the challenges agencies are facing, some of our best practices for developing a robust zero trust architecture, and a use case demonstrating how zero trust can integrate into every part of your agency’s operations.
As we prepare for the 2024 Public Sector Summit on April 4th, I am excited that this year’s line up will be bigger and even more engaging. With more than 22 guest speakers from across government, education and private sector, the audience will hear top of mind topics and discuss current threats and challenges facing agencies and the supporting community such as AI, funding zero trust initiatives, safeguarding critical infrastructure, SD-WAN and much more.
Distinguished Speakers
