Presents:
Zero Trust Falls Short Without Network Identity
Lessons from Salt Typhoon
Join Craig Riddell
VP of Technology at Kron Technologies
Salt Typhoon proved that attackers are exploiting identity blind spots in the network layer to bypass controls and move laterally. This session explores how traditional PAM and NAC tools leave routers, switches, and firewalls exposed, and why identity-first security must extend beyond IT systems. We’ll break down the attack path, highlight key lessons from Salt Typhoon, and show how applying Zero Trust principles at the network layer can stop similar breaches before they start.
Who Should Attend
This session is designed for identity and security professionals across technical, executive, compliance, and audit roles. Whether you manage IAM programs, oversee Zero Trust initiatives, or evaluate controls for regulatory readiness, this webinar will help you understand the overlooked risks in the network layer and why identity must extend beyond users and applications to include infrastructure itself.
Salt Typhoon in Focus
Unpack how the Salt Typhoon attack leveraged identity blind spots in network infrastructure to bypass detection.
The Device Gap
Understand why identity programs often exclude critical devices like routers, switches, and firewalls — and the risks that creates.
Limits of Legacy Tools
Explore the limitations of traditional PAM and NAC tools in enforcing identity controls beyond IT systems.
Zero Trust Weaknesses
Learn how the absence of user-level accountability on network devices undermines Zero Trust and audit readiness
Compliance at Risk
Examine how shared accounts and lack of session visibility contribute to compliance and operational gaps
