On May 12, 2021, President Joe Biden signed an Executive Order (EO) on Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity, indicating a future increase of regulatory oversight of cybersecurity laws and regulations. Many different areas of cybersecurity were discussed but mentions of “Zero Trust Security,” “Zero Trust Architecture,” and “Automation” were peppered throughout.
As discussed in a previous blog post, it’s no secret that the path to zero trust is lined with cloud automation. The EO may call for the adoption of a Zero Trust Architecture, but being able to achieve it in the most accelerated, secure, and cost-effective way will be done by adopting and leveraging automated, standardized, and pre-engineered cloud-native application security platforms and technologies.
