Understanding Zero Trust Network Access
Zero Trust is a modern security framework that shifts the focus from perimeter-based defenses to identity and context-driven access control. In this blog, we explore what makes Zero Trust critical for today's distributed environments.
Testing
Traditional Security Models Fall Short
Legacy models assume everything inside the network is trusted. But with remote work, cloud apps, and mobile devices, that assumption is no longer valid.
Key Principles of Zero Trust
- Verify explicitly using strong authentication.
- Enforce least privilege access.
- Assume breach and monitor continuously.
Sample Policy Snippet
<pre><code>{
"access": "deny-by-default",
"conditions": {
"user": "must-be-authenticated",
"device": "must-be-managed"
}
}
</code></pre>
Benefits of Adopting Zero Trust
Organizations can reduce attack surface, improve compliance, and enable secure remote work.
