Zero Trust is a security framework that operates on the principle that no user or system, inside or outside the organization’s network, should be trusted by default. Every access request is thoroughly verified before granting access to resources, regardless of the user’s location or the network they are operating from. This approach involves continuous authentication, strict access controls, and constant monitoring to ensure that only authorized users can access sensitive data and systems. Zero Trust aims to minimize security risks by assuming that threats could be present both within and outside the network perimeter, thereby enhancing the overall security posture of an organization.
