Losing the Cybersecurity War: And What We Can Do to Stop It

An explanation of the five pillars or battlefields of Cybersecurity and how a Zero Trust approach can change the advantage on each battlefield. Deep dive into each of five battlefields where we have a decided disadvantage due to constitutional structure and moral behavioural guidelines and examples of how we got here, and what we can do about it, and moreover why we got here and how we can avoid those traps in the future. A unique viewpoint that has never been explored – five battlefields include Economics, Technology, Information, Education and Leadership – and how each has contributed to our current disadvantage on the global stage – and how Zero Trust can change the game to an advantage for us going forward. The Zero Trust credibility is directly from the father of Zero Trust, John Kindervag who says And now, Steve has written a new book on Zero Trust called: LOSING THE CYBERSECURITY WAR: Reversing the Attacker/Defender Dynamic on the Five Battlefields of Cybersecurity. It is undeniably the best Zero Trust book yet written. While other writers have focused on implementing Zero Trust from their perspectives, Steve focuses on why Zero Trust is so important on the modern cybersecurity battlefield. His concept of the five cyber battlefields is a great insight that will help us win the cyberwar. By weaving Zero Trust principles throughout these five concepts, Steve demonstrates how the ideas and efforts involved in building Zero Trust environments will lead to a profound shift in terrain advantage. No longer will attackers own the high ground. As defenders and protectors, we can leverage modern technology in a Zero Trust way to keep our data and assets safe from exfiltration and exploitation.
