The Need for an Open Architecture Approach to Zero Trust Networks (ZTNA)

In the rapidly evolving landscape of cybersecurity, the Zero Trust Network Architecture (ZTNA) has emerged as a pivotal strategy for securing modern networks. However, solutions in this $7B industry remain costly to depoy, inaccessible to the majority of organizations, and suffer from a lack of ecosystem vibrancy. An open architecture is needed for ZTNA to achieve its potential. First, what is ZTNA? Traditional security models, like VPNs, rely on a walled-garden approach, which grants broad...

Relcaim Family Privacy with Diode

Family communication should be simple, safe, and truly secure. Group messaging keeps everyone connected, shared photos preserve memories, and digital calendars keep the household running. But here’s the uncomfortable truth: most traditional messaging apps fall short on family safety and secure messaging. The Problem Every photo, message, and document shared usually passes through, and often stays on, someone else’s server. Even “secure” messaging apps rely on centralized systems that can be logged, exposed, or linked...
