Zero trust is not a single product. It is a security approach that continuously verifies access and limits the impact of a compromised account, device or workload.
Protect identity first
Use phishing resistant multi factor authentication where possible, remove unused accounts quickly and grant only the access each role needs.
- Central identity management
- Strong authentication
- Regular access reviews
Know and segment your environment
Maintain an inventory of devices, applications and sensitive data. Segment critical systems so one incident cannot move freely across the business.
Observe, test and improve
Centralise useful logs, rehearse response plans and patch exposed systems. Security maturity grows through repeatable operating habits rather than one time projects.
