Turn Your Zero Trust Strategy into a funded, executable program.

A two-week deep dive into your current state. The Zero Trust Readiness Assessment gauges your organization’s commitment, program formality, and supporting business initiatives, while the ZTMM+ Maturity Assessment benchmarks you across all five pillars using our enhanced version of CISA’s model. Together they give you the clear starting point needed to chart your Zero Trust roadmap, without a long, drawn-out analysis. This holistic picture provides your enterprise with a clear view of its current state from both organizational and functional perspectives. This provides a strong foundation for the enterprise’s entire Zero Trust initiative.

After obtaining the 360° picture of your organization, the next step is to define your overall strategy for the initiative. It’s important to take a balanced approach to this, which grounds your aspirational and visionary elements to the creation of a real-world program. This approach ensures that every element of your vision is woven into your plan, and that you identify the actual people, time, and prioritizations that will be required to achieve

We accomplish this via a two-week phase focused on two short deliverables: the Vision document, a non-technical “north star” that articulates why your organization is adopting Zero Trust and aligns future decisions and investments with that direction, and the Program Definition, which establishes your Steering Committee’s structure, cadence, and responsibilities for leading the initiative. Together, they give your Zero Trust program a clear and balanced strategic foundation before moving into execution.

Traditional IT planning models don’t capture what makes Zero Trust different: the dependency between access policies and the underlying capabilities needed to enforce them. This two-week phase closes that gap, producing two aligned and prioritized roadmaps that keep your Zero Trust initiative grounded in what your organization can realistically deliver. The Access Policy Roadmap schedules the activation of access policies your organization is already equipped to enforce. The Capability Roadmap plans the technology and process work needed to unlock the policies that aren’t ready yet, with ensuring nothing gets activated before it’s actually capable of being enforced.

A roadmap is only as good as its execution, and our support services ensure that your initiative remains on track, and delivers on its promised value. Engage with us via monthly or quarterly structured checkpoints, or have us help you drive the roadmap through our fractional Zero Trust Program Manager offering. Either way, together we help you orchestrate the technology deployments and process changes defined in your roadmap, enabling the enforcement of dynamic, fine-grained and more effective access policies. Together, we’ll ensure you define outcome-based metrics, not just deployment milestones. No matter how you choose to work with us through this execution phase, our ongoing engagement keeps the initiative on track, ensuring successful outcomes.
