In this episode of Zero Trusts Given, hosts Tom Tittermary and Tom Gianelos are joined by Jared Shepard, CEO of Hypori, to discuss redefining device security and enabling Zero Trust in edge environments. Jared introduces Hypori’s virtual mobile operating system, which eliminates data at rest and transit on edge devices by streaming encrypted pixels securely, allowing users to work from compromised or personal devices without risk to enterprise systems. This approach enables agility in BYOD, tactical missions, and mission partner environments, simplifying access while maintaining strong security posture. Jared also discusses the importance of a defense-in-depth approach, avoiding reliance on single vendors, and improving downstream supply chain security to protect critical infrastructures. The episode concludes with a heartfelt discussion about Jared’s nonprofit, Warrior’s Ethos, which supports veterans transitioning from military service by providing mentorship, resources, and job support. He encourages listeners to volunteer, hire veterans, and help ease their transition into civilian opportunities.
