Introduction
The traditional security model of protecting a network perimeter is no longer sufficient. With remote work and cloud resources, businesses must transition to a Zero Trust architecture.
Core Principles of Zero Trust
1. Verify Explicitly: Always authenticate and authorize users based on all available data points (identity, location, device health).
2. Least Privilege Access: Limit user access with Just-In-Time and Just-Enough-Access policies to minimize exposure.
3. Assume Breach: Segment networks and monitor all sessions to limit potential damage from an internal compromise.
Conclusion
Zero Trust is not a single product, but a strategic security framework that ensures access controls are applied contextually and continuously.
