Introduction to Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA)
Risk and security need to be balanced with growth and operation.
What is Zero Trust? - The ability to grow and operate in an unprotected network. It's a new security paradigm that requires a new strategy. Data is the ultimate resource. We need to be able to protect Data, Apps and APIs.
The digitized Enterprise drives Zero Trust. Drivers:
Evolving business models
Evolving partnerships and ecosystems
Rapidly changing technology drivers
Evolving and often lagging regulatory requirements
Disruptive events.
Requirements:
Exponentially increasing need for Agility
Exponentially increasing Complexity
Disruptive Events
Shift to remote work
New and often lagging regulations
New threats + real time/near real-time response
Need for easurable controls and automated audit.
