In this latest edition of the ARC Digital Transformation Podcast, we talk with NetFoundry founder and CEO Galeal Zino about the challenges facing end users in OT cybersecurity in the age of AI and digitalization. NetFoundry was created to address fundamental weaknesses in traditional networking and cybersecurity. We discuss how traditional networking is not designed for today’s digital transformation requirements. Complexity created by layered security tools increases risk and reduces reliability. NetFoundry replaces IP-centric networking with cryptographically verifiable identities and policy-based authorization, aligning networking more closely with zero-trust principles. NetFoundry also maintains and actively invests in OpenZiti, its open-source secure networking platform. The goal is to create a “Linux of secure networking,” supported by a growing global community.
