DevSecOps Days Washington, D.C. 2026

Zero Trust is the de-facto standard for modern cybersecurity that helps organizations secure the ‘hybrid of everything’ technical estate spanning IT, OT, IoT, cloud, Artificial Intelligence (AI), data, and more. Come and learn the “what” and “why” of Zero Trust, a quick overview of capabilities, and particularly a holistic view of the SCRM/DevSecOps Capability in the upcoming Zero Trust Reference Model Standard. Numerous SCRM related breaches and the complexities of the diversity of platforms and dependencies make this a very complex and critical topic to maintain an organization’s security posture. Nikhil is a practitioner and thought leader who has taken multiple organizations on this journey, co-chairs the Zero Trust Working Group, and is co-author of the Zero Trust Playbook series. This presentation is recommended for leaders and practitioners to understand this rapidly evolving space and its implications.
