Recommendations

Identify a ZTA budget estimate from the managed projects and initiatives.

Ensure the ZTA plan is revised to include defined roles and responsibilities.

Enhance the ZTA roadmap to include a schedule for completion, address the gap analysis, and prioritize specific activities within each of the five ZTA pillars to ensure full implementation across the enterprise.

The Chief Information Officer should reassess the ZTA implementation progress to ensure management has accurate and complete information to inform planning and the budget process.
