In this episode, we take on a candid debate: is Zero Trust a real strategy or just another layer of marketing? Guest Ken Yao challenges the industry’s favorite buzzword while unpacking what truly matters for building security programs.
Guest: Ken Yao (https://www.linkedin.com/in/kennethyao)
Host: Dr. Victor Monga (https://www.linkedin.com/in/victorvirtual)
Highlights:
–| Why Ken sees Zero Trust as “Trust but Verify, minus the politeness.”
–| The bear-chase analogy: benchmarking against peers instead of chasing perfection.
–| Big GRC vs. little gRC—and why compliance alone is never enough.
–| The danger of buzzwords overshadowing execution in contracts and programs.
–| Why long-term trust, not short-term slogans, should guide strategy.
–| Looking ahead: how AI could make security a “solved problem” in the next five years.
A rare episode that puts Zero Trust under the microscope, weighing strategy against marketing and forcing us to ask—are we building real security, or just selling stories?
