The concept of Zero Trust? What do you know about it?

"Zero Trust is a modern security strategy that shifts the focus from trusting devices and users by default to a model of continuous verification.

It operates on three key principles:

•Verify explicitly - Always authenticate and authorise based on all available data points.

•Use least privilege access - Limit user access with Just-In-Time and Just-Enough-Access (JIT/JEA), risk-based adaptive policies, and data protection.

•Assume breach - Minimise blast radius and segment access. Verify end-to-end encryption and use analytics to get visibility, drive threat detection, and improve defences.

This approach is designed to protect today's complex, mobile-first environments by assuming that every request, whether inside or outside the corporate network, is a potential threat.

Zero Trust operates across seven critical technology pillars:

•Identities

•Endpoints

•Data

•Apps

•Infrastructure

•Network

•Visibility/Automation.

Each pillar represents a layer of protection, and when combined, they provide a comprehensive approach to defending your organisation's resources.

By implementing these controls, you can enforce security at every point, ensuring that only verified and authorised access is granted, minimising risks across your organisation."
