Zero Trust

Zero Trust

A security model that does not assume default trust for any entity and requires verification for all access.

Benefits of Zero Trust Network

Improved data loss mitigation, better compliance with security mandates, and lower total cost of ownership.

Core Zero Trust Principles

Secure access to all resources, least privilege strategy, and traffic inspection and logging.

Secure Access

Ensures all resources are accessed securely, regardless of location, with proper device status and settings.

Least Privilege Strategy

Minimizes access to resources to reduce potential attack vectors for malware and attackers.

Inspect and Log All Traffic

Verifies device credentials and monitors all traffic for security.

Protect Surface

Refers to the network's most critical data, assets, applications, and services.

Zero Trust Segmentation Platform

A gateway that defines internal trust boundaries and provides security functionality.

Trust Zones

Areas within the network where resources operate at the same trust levels and share similar functionalities.

Management Infrastructure

Centralized capabilities for efficient administration and monitoring of network traffic.

Zero Trust Criteria/Capabilities

Secure access, traffic inspection, least privilege access control, cyberthreat protection, and coverage for all security domains.

Secure Access

Provides consistent VPN connectivity and defines policies for user and device access to sensitive applications.

Inspection of All Traffic

Accurately identifies and classifies traffic, eliminating evasion tactics used by malware.

Least Privileges Access Control

Controls resource interactions based on app, user, and content attributes.

Cyberthreat Protection

Combines various technologies to protect against known and unknown cyber threats.

Coverage for all Security Domains

Establishes consistent trust boundaries across the entire network using virtual and hardware appliances.

Implementation of Zero Trust Platform

Involves configuring the platform in listen-only mode, defining trust zones, and progressively establishing boundaries.
