Zero trust is often misunderstood as a single product or firewall configuration. In reality it is a shift in how you think about access: no implicit trust for any user or device.
Here is how to start applying zero trust principles today.
Assume that every login or API call could be from a compromised source. Require continuous verification by:
Give users and services only the access they need, for as long as they need it. Periodically review permissions and revoke those that are unused.
Use role based or attribute based access controls to simplify policy management.
Divide your network and cloud environment into zones. Apply controls between zones so that a breach in one area does not spread unchecked.
Monitor east-west traffic and alert on unusual patterns or connections.
Adopting zero trust is a journey, not a project. Start by hardening your most critical assets and build out from there.
