Creator of the Zero Trust Security Model, John Kindervag, Joins Cybersecurity Startup Cerby as Advisor

Cerby, the world’s first security platform for unmanageable applications, announced that John Kindervag, one of the world’s foremost cybersecurity experts, has joined its Advisory Board. Kindervag is the creator of the Zero Trust model that has revolutionized the cybersecurity industry. In this role, Kindervag will help the company focus its efforts on some of the greatest dangers in the IT universe today—unmanageable applications. A $400B problem, these are applications that lack support for critical standards such as single sign-on, role based access control and security APIs, which are required for companies to implement Zero Trust principles.

“As the creator of Zero Trust, I’m always on the lookout for disruptive technologies that make it easier to architect Zero Trust environments,” Kindervag noted. “Step one in implementing Zero Trust is to define the Protect Surface, which contains a single data type, asset, or application. But as the landscape gets overrun with unmanageable applications, it becomes very difficult to manage and protect. Cerby brings these new application types into the Zero Trust world–this innovative technology makes the unmanageable easily manageable. I’m honored that they’ve asked me to join their team as an advisor.”
