Zero Trust Data Protection

Zero Trust is vital for organisations due to the evolving threat landscape and the inadequacy of traditional perimeter-based security. It assumes that threats exist both inside and outside the network, and thus, it requires continuous verification of users and devices before granting access to resources. By implementing Zero Trust principles, such as least privilege access, strict authentication and continuous monitoring, organisations can mitigate the risks associated with insider threats, data breaches, and unauthorised access. This approach enhances overall security posture, ensures protection of sensitive data and minimises the potential impact of cyberattacks, making it essential for modern cybersecurity strategies.

Key features should include:

‍

• Mitigates data breaches and insider threats by continuous verification of users and devices, considering threats inside and outside the network.
• Enforces least privilege, granting users’ access only to necessary resources, reducing attack surface and damage from compromised accounts.
• Uses continuous monitoring and adaptive access controls to detect anomalies in real-time, allowing proactive responses to security incidents.
• Enforces strict authentication and access controls, aiding compliance with GDPR, HIPAA, PCI DSS, safeguarding sensitive data and privacy rights.
