A Quantitative Approach to Innovation with PJ Kirner, Co-Founder and Advisor, Illumio

In this episode, host Raghu Nandukumara sits down with Illumio CTO and Co-Founder PJ Kirner, to discuss Illumio’s founding story, taking a data-driven approach to innovation and market validation, and what RSA attendees should be thinking about as they gear up for this year’s conference.

--------

"I do think we fell off the bandwagon with all this implicit trust in the environment…All these things that were just allowed to talk to each other implicitly—no one ever thought about, you know, let’s turn this into explicit trust? That's a place where I think we definitely needed Zero Trust to help us along that journey." - PJ Kirner
