Zero Trust: The Master Key to Zero Trust Security

Zero Trust has emerged as an essential approach for organizing enterprise cybersecurity. Perimeter-based security can fail when it’s set up with high default trust levels that were once reasonable within controlled networks. Today, with edgeless enterprises spanning public and private clouds, work-from-anywhere scenarios, and complex supply chains a Zero Trust approach is essential for cyber-defense.

This paper explains device visibility within the context of Forrester’s ZTX model, which helps:

• Apply network isolation, segmentation and security
• Enable data categorization, isolation and encryption
• Authenticate network users while securing resources
• Protect workloads across public and private clouds
• Automate and orchestrate across heterogeneous networks
• Provide visibility and control to every device across an enterprise
• Learn how a Zero Trust solution grounded in complete visibility acts on risks identified with each device, manages their security through segmentation and organizes through layers addressing policies, orchestration and enforcement.
