This document discusses the growing importance of security and zero-trust models in today's shifting IT landscape. It notes that most web transactions are now encrypted, mobility is changing the perimeter, and shadow IT is becoming the norm. However, 66% of companies are still breached despite increased spending on security. The document highlights recent ransomware attacks and outlines gaps between what CEOs and technical officers view as primary threats. It argues for a strategic focus on zero-trust security practices like multi-factor authentication and privileged access management to better protect against breaches involving stolen passwords or abuse of privileges. The document concludes by noting areas of infrastructure, policy, and skills that Iraq needs to strengthen its national cybersecurity posture.

Editor's Notes
- Let’s look at this another way: Last year we spent over $86B on cyber security yet a stunned 2/3rds of companies were still breached And worse, those that were breached averaged five or more separate breaches Bottom line: Something has to change. Today’s security is not secure.
- Why do we need a massive rethink of security? Simple: Shareholders are not safe Recent Ponemon study shows that stocks drop 5% after a breach is announced And worse, 30% of impacted consumers discontinue their relationship with the breached company A recent example of shareholder impact is Chipotle which saw it’s stock drop by $400M after announcing a breach Consumers are not safe Over one billion Yahoo users accounts were compromised for years before notifying users Note: this impacted the takeover offer from Verizon to the tune of $350M or 7% of the offer price Governments are not safe Poor authentication and misused privileged accounts resulted in 25M stolen personnel records Note: OPM breach involved the compromise of a “jump box” giving hackers control of every machine on the network Companies are not safe DNS provider (Dyn) knocked offline by a botnet of millions of IoT devices compromised because they all shared the same default password

- This new threatscape requires a complete paradigm shift. One that rethinks and challenges the network perimeter-based approach One that puts identity at the foundation of the massive security rethink. One that removes trust from the network and redefines security to follow identity based on knowing the user and their device before granting access A new paradigm that frees companies to move fearlessly into the modern cloudscape by not relying on implicit trust, but enforcing a dynamic security policy that only trusts when verified
- So how we can deliver Zero Trust Security?
- If you do these things, then what are the benefits of achieving Zero Trust maturity? According to a brand new study from Forrester, entitled “Stop the Breach”, there are massive benefits to improving Zero Trust maturity including: 50% reduction in the number of reported breaches An average of $5M in cost savings related to breaches Interestingly, the most mature organizations preferred an integrated platform approach vs point and custom one-off solutions. This strategic approach led to a 40% reduction in IAM technology costs as a percentage of IT budget. Massive savings.
- So what makes different or better than alternatives?
