Future-proofing councils with Zscaler’s Zero Trust architecture
25th September
11:00 – 15:30
Malmaison, Edinburgh City
Local and regional government bodies across Scotland are under increasing pressure to modernise their IT infrastructure while safeguarding sensitive data. With the rise in hybrid working and growing digital service demands, legacy networks and VPNs are struggling to keep up, leaving public sector organisations exposed to evolving cyber threats.
Join our exclusive event, hosted in partnership with Zscaler, tailored for IT and security leaders in the public sector. We’ll explore how Zscaler is supporting councils with its Zero Trust platform, helping them overcome the limitations of traditional network models and build a more secure, scalable foundation for digital transformation.
A quick look at how Zero Trust is transforming the public sector
Implementing a Zero Trust architecture offers councils a modern, scalable way to strengthen cyber resilience and support digital transformation. Here’s how:
Enhanced protection of resident data
Zscaler’s Zero Trust Platform minimises the risk of unauthorised access by verifying every user and device. This helps safeguard sensitive information across cloud and on-premises systems
Modernisation without disruption
Transitioning from legacy VPNs to Zero Trust Secured Access enables secure, direct-to-application access, reducing complexity and improving performance without interrupting day-to-day operations
Reduced risk across the network
By eliminating implicit trust and segmenting access, Zero Trust helps prevent lateral movement, insider threats, and third-party vulnerabilities. All of which are key concerns for IT teams based in councils
