Zero Trust Security is a security model that operates on the principle that no entity, whether inside or outside the network, should be trusted by default. Instead, every access request is thoroughly verified before granting access to resources. This model emphasizes protecting resources rather than merely securing the network perimeter, acknowledging that threats can originate both inside and outside the network.
1.Resource Protection: Zero Trust focuses on securing individual resources, assuming that threats can bypass traditional perimeter defenses.
2.Verification: Every access request is authenticated and authorized regardless of the source, ensuring that only legitimate users can access sensitive resources.
3.Modern Security Approach: This model aligns with the evolving threat landscape where insider threats and advanced persistent threats are common.
