    Thanks to all of you who attended yesterday's Workstream 9 working session, with our focus on the Step 3 document (Building a Zero Trust Architecture).

    We continue to make progress on the writing --- turning our outlines and bullet points into prose.

    Please note that CSA is transitioning away from the Circle platform - see Erik's posting here: https://circle.cloudsecurityalliance.org/community-home1?communitykey=76100168-bb90-4ba9-ae5f-31c9264d05c1

    Please make sure you're signed up for both the CSA Slack and the Google Group email list so you can remain informed.
