What is Zero Trust?

Zero Trust is a security model that requires all users, whether inside or outside the organization's network, to be authenticated, authorized, and continuously validated before being granted access to applications and data.

Core Principles

• Never Trust, Always Verify - No implicit trust based on network location
• Least Privilege Access - Users only get minimal required access
• Assume Breach - Design security assuming attackers are already inside
• Verify Explicitly - Always authenticate and authorize based on all available data points
