Microsoft is on the front lines helping secure customers worldwide\u2014analyzing and responding to cybersecurity threats, building security technologies,\u00a0 and partnering with organizations to effectively deploy these technologies for increased security. Many of you have been following as we\u2019ve described our\u00a0Secure Future Initiative<\/a>, which is pushing the Zero Trust principles verify explicitly, least privilege and assume breach into the programmatic approach of Secure by Design, Secure by Default, and Secure Operations across Microsoft consistently, durably and at scale. In the Microsoft Security division, we are also focused on helping our customers deploy our suite of security products to protect themselves from cyber threats. We know that most of our customers are embarking on a Zero Trust journey, but many struggle with the enormity of the opportunity: where to start, what to do next, and how to measure progress.\u00a0<\/p>\n

We are announcing a resource to help our customers answer these questions: The Microsoft Zero Trust Workshop<\/a>, a self-service tool to help you plan and execute your Zero Trust journey guide by yourself or with the guidance of a partner.<\/p>\n

The Zero Trust Workshop lets you customize your organization\u2019s end-to-end security deployment to your unique business needs and your environment with a powerful tool that: provides a comprehensive assessment of zero trust capabilities learned from hundreds of deployments; guides you with a visual easy-to-use tool that explains each step of the journey; and delivers a digital artifact that you and your team can use to plan and prioritize your next steps and to compare and measure progress regularly. <\/p>\n

How our workshop helps customers and partners solidify their Zero Trust strategy <\/h2>\n

Over the past year, we have piloted this workshop with more than 30 customers and partners. They have consistently told us that this provides them with the clarity, coverage, and actionable guidance they need to secure their organization within each Zero Trust<\/a> pillar and across the pillars. When asked how likely they are to recommend the workshop to their partner teams or to other customers, customers give the workshop a net promoter score of 73.<\/p>\n

The layout and question structure is fantastic as it provokes a fair amount of thought around adding each of the capabilities to take a multi-faceted approach to authentication and authorization.<\/p>\n

Security is a team sport, and we recognize that customers often need security partners to help them plan and execute their security strategy. This is why we partnered with several deployment partners across the pillars of Zero Trust to get their feedback on the workshop and how they would use it to help their customers. <\/p>\n

\n

The Zero Trust Workshop is a great starting point for our customers who want to embrace Zero Trust principles, but don\u2019t know how to align the technology they already own. Furthermore, the workshop allows our customers to measure the progress they\u2019ve made and aim for the next incremental hardening of the Zero Trust model, which is part and parcel of the Zero Trust manner of thinking. As a Microsoft partner and as an MVP, I advocate that customers use the materials provided by Microsoft, including these workshops, to measure and further their security posture. <\/p>\n

[The Zero Trust workshop] has enabled Slalom to help clients accelerate their efforts towards a comprehensive cyber resilience strategy. It provides a clear picture of an organization\u2019s current state and provides a template for order of operations and best practices in a very tidy package. It\u2019s an easy-to-use tool with a huge impact, and our clients and workshop participants have been very impressed by how it organizes and prioritizes a complex set of operations in an approachable and manageable way.<\/p>\n
