In a cloud-first, hybrid environment, the network perimeter is blurring. Traditional security approaches such as firewalls and antivirus solutions that focus purely on outsider threats are therefore being rendered moot. All this, while cyberattacks get increasingly sophisticated and intense. It’s time to take a more proactive approach to security.
Based on the idea of “never trust, always verify,” the Zero Trust Framework removes implicit trust built into enterprises’ security fabric. The approach ensures that the right people are getting the right level of access across the enterprise, thereby improving security posture and end-user productivity.
Zero Trust Security architecture requires all users, regardless of their identity and location, to be authenticated and authorized for access before being granted network resources. A Zero Trust security framework continuously identifies and eliminates uncertainty in enforcing security rules. This helps combat an ever-evolving threat landscape.
