Get started on your Zero Trust journey

In the past two years, the concept of a perimeter has been completely eliminated. With remote working being the norm than the exception, the traditional security model is no longer effective. This is especially more relevant today, as there is a significant rise in digital transactions. With more users transacting online, the attack surface area has dramatically exploded, with more users accessing applications from different endpoints. This changed landscape has created many issues, with respect to security. The clear need of the hour is to create a stronger security landscape and reduce risks. This is where a Zero Trust framework can help.

Unlike the traditional security model, which assumes that once given access, the identity can be trusted, a Zero Trust model assumes that every entity is hostile, and needs to verify credentials for every transaction. This model demands that trust is verified at each stage before granting any access. And identity is the foundation of this verification process. ‘Never trust and always verify’ is the core premise of a Zero Trust framework, and this means every entity – a device, a user or any transaction must always verify its credentials before given any access.
