Zero Trust Security
Ever-changing workplaces require modern, flexible solutions to cybersecurity. Zero Trust policies are customizable and secure, making them the ideal option for protecting your evolving business.
What Is Zero Trust Security?
Zero Trust security operates on the principle of “trust no one, verify everything.” Many traditional security approaches work like a barbed electric fence—they simply prevent danger from getting in. However, they seldom require those who are already in to confirm that they are trustworthy.
Meanwhile, Zero Trust implements strict access controls and gives no one the benefit of the doubt. No one has default access, and all users and devices (whether they are inside or outside the fence) are required to verify their credentials.
How ZERO tRUST sECURITY woRKS
Zero Trust is based on a few simple principles to create a tight protective web around your business.
Identity Management
In a world of hackers and code cracking, a simple password often isn’t enough. Multi-factor identification, including verification apps, fingerprinting, and more, are essential to confirm a user’s identity.
Continuous Validation
Frequent, yet reasonable, session timeouts require users to enter login credentials again, protecting sensitive information that could have been left open. Users are allowed access only when they’re reauthorized, and stale users are blocked.
Least Privilege
Not every employee needs access to every piece of information. The principle of least privilege gives a user access to the resources they need and nothing more, protecting high-level data from unnecessary viewing and manipulation.
Device Access Control
Controls limit which devices access your company’s network and confirm that devices are safe and uncompromised. Only trusted devices are granted access, with regular monitoring to maintain security.
Network Segmentation
Segmentation divides your network into small zones, each with its own controls and policies. This limits the impact of potential breaches and restricts unauthorized movement within the network.
Context Is Everything
Making decisions within a Zero Trust framework is all about context. Who needs access to what resources in which situations? How deep should they be able to get into the information? For how long? Setting up rules to manage context is the foundation of Zero Trust policies.
Is Zero Trust Right for You?
Zero Trust is ideal for many situations, including:
- Facilitating remote work
- Managing cloud resources
- Granting limited access to external parties
- Onboarding new employees
