The Zero Trust approach is a cybersecurity model that grants no default trust within or outside an organization’s network.
Rather than relying on traditional security perimeters, the Zero Trust model requires continuous verification of the identity and context of every access request to resources and data.
This paradigm is based on the principle of “never trust, always verify,” involving strict user authentication, minimization of privileges, and the enforcement of dynamic security policies. By segmenting the network into micro-segments, it reduces the potential attack surface, thereby enhancing protection against internal and external cyber threats.
