The Path to Zero (Trust) | Scott Peterson

The Digital Trust Podcast

Show Notes

Zero trust gives you the ability to know what and who to trust.

On Season 2 Episode 18 of the Digital Trust Podcast, host Christian Redshaw and co-host Zach(ary) Eikenberry sit down with Scott Peterson, CSO of Cyber Solutions, CTDO at Lyra Recovery, and CSO of a managed zero trust environment, to unpack why organizations struggle with proactive security and what it really takes to build a mature zero trust strategy.

Drawing from years of experience in cybersecurity leadership, incident recovery, and managed services, Peterson shares practical lessons from real-world recovery cases, including the overlooked gaps that continue to leave organizations exposed.

The conversation dives into:

• Why Zero Trust starts with mindset, not tools • The most common security gaps organizations still ignore • Why reactive security creates long-term risk • Practical first steps toward a mature security posture • The importance of executive buy-in for cybersecurity success

If your security strategy only starts after something breaks… this episode is a must-watch.
