Zero Trust Security

                              Zero Trust Security 

Welcome, all to my new blog on the zero-trust security model. We are going to discuss 

1. Zero trust security model 
2. Zero trust security architecture 
3.  Zero trust concept 
4.  Three key elements of a zero-trust architecture 
5. What are the principles for successful implementation
6.  Sample zero trust architecture 

Introduction

• Zero trust architecture enables organizations to prioritize access and restrictions.
• The goal is to implement a zero-trust policy across all traffic to ensure no user device or system can put the network at risk.
•  zero trust architectures typically enforce three main principles that are 
1. There is no such thing as trustworthy users.
2. Mult-factor authentication is a must.
3. Micro-segmentation is critical for enforcing restrictions. 
• To implement zero-trust security organizations need to adopt information security practices and tools that expand their endpoint visibility and enable control over access and privileges

What is zero trust architecture?

Zero trust architectures are constructed on the basis that there is no secure perimeter instead every event and connection is considered untrusted and potentially malicious. 

The goal of zero trust architectures is to keep networks protected despite increasingly sophisticated threats and complex perimeters this is why zero trust architecture is also called zero-trust network or in general zero-trust security.

               

Zero trust model implements data security that prioritizes access and restrictions this is particularly relevant in today's business environment as organizations increasingly need to secure a remote workforce. In a zero-trust architecture users' devices and services receive the least possible privileges until proven trustworthy in a few cases when implementing zero-trust network access privilege restrictions extend even after authentication and authorization.

         

zero threat architectures are designed to reduce the vulnerabilities associated with cloud resources ephemeral endpoints dynamic attacks and IoT devices. These architectures are often adopted by organizations with highly sensitive data and systems.
