Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), Carta and SDP [GKZTNACS]

OVERVIEW

In this Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), CARTA and SDP training the concepts of Zero Trust and Carta are explained and the implementation with a Software Defined Perimeter (SDP) and Micro-segmentation clarified.

Our current network design is based on the assumption that inside the datacenter traffic and applications are trusted. Zero Trust offers defence against the “trusted insider” and malware that has infiltrated our network (think of the Solarwinds hack. You can find the concepts of Zero Trust and CARTA in solutions like Software Defined Perimeter and Micro-segmentation. In this Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA), CARTA and SDP training you will learn the architecture of SDP and Micro-segmentation, how it works and how to implement it.

This training is also part of the 5-day Masterclass Digital Transformation (GKMDT).
