Zero Trust Maturity Model

whitePaper | April 28, 2023

The Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) leads the nation’s effort to understand, manage, and reduce cybersecurity risk, including by supporting Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies in evolving and operationalizing cybersecurity programs and capabilities. CISA’s Zero Trust Maturity Model (ZTMM) provides an approach to achieve continued modernization efforts related to zero trust within a rapidly evolving environment and technology landscape. This ZTMM is one of many paths that an organization can take in designing and implementing their transition plan to zero trust architectures in accordance with Executive Order (EO) 14028 “Improving the Nation’s Cybersecurity” § (3)(b)(ii),1 which requires that agencies develop a plan to implement a Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA). While the ZTMM is specifically tailored for federal agencies as required by EO 14028, all organizations should review and consider adoption of the approaches outlined in this document.

MEC security; Status of standards support and future evolutions

whitePaper | September 28, 2022

The present White Paper will focus on MEC (Multi-access Edge Computing) technologies and intends to explore security-related use cases and requirements with the aim of identifying aspects of security where the nature of edge computing results in insufficient industry approaches to cloud security. Edge computing environments are by nature characterized by a complex multi-vendor, multi-supplier, multi-stakeholder ecosystem of equipment including both HW and SW devices. Given this overall level of system heterogeneity, the areas of security, trust, and privacy are key topics for the edge environments. Finally, the advent of edge cloud federations and the presence of (far) edge devices, e.g., in Internet-ofThings environments, requires tackling MEC security with an end-to-end (E2E) approach by leveraging existing standards relevant in the area, as carefully selected to be applicable in edge computing systems.

Optimizing Your Zero Trust Environment for Secure Video Conferencing

whitePaper | July 4, 2023

We’ve all heard the buzz around the virtual water cooler that Zero Trust Architectures are The Next Big Thing in network security, but what do we really know about them? And, perhaps more relevant to our discussion today, why should you care? This white paper looks at how and why Zero Trust (ZT) defines a data-centric security model and what that means in a real-time production environment. We build on that conversation to take a deeper look at how Pexip's video conferencing platform integrates with your existing ZT strategy and can even give you some new ZT concept ideas to consider.

Security Challenges for the Energy Industry on the Industrial Internet of Things

whitePaper | November 4, 2022

The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is a relatively new computing paradigm that combines machine learning (ML), artificial intelligence (AI), remote sensors, and device-control applications (or “apps”) to help businesses and industry achieve more efficient and reliable operations. In the oil and gas field, IIoT is used for a variety of purposes—from fully autonomous pump and valve control to remote sensing of security breaches at isolated wellsites.
