Zero Trust Enablement Services
Zero Trust is a series of measures to secure an enterprise by removing implicit trust. Simply put, it means that every action, device, operation, and configuration change has to earn trust before it can access network resources or modify the network itself in some way. At its core, Zero Trust involves a framework wherein every action is validated in terms of origin, need and end result to ensure that no unauthorized action is allowed to occur.
Deploying Zero Trust requires a complete revamp of many aspects of network usage. In an ICS environment, where many tasks and workflows are allowed based on pre-approved rules, implementing Zero Trust can present many challenges. Which is why many companies have Migration to a Zero Trust framework can however bring many benefits including better flexibility in deploying more complex security measures and improved ability to meet existing and new compliance mandates.
Challenges
- Lack of adequate visibility into networks, assets and identities, workflows, privileges and operations
- Legacy systems that run unsupported technologies
- Network complexities and integration challenges
- Defining scope and coverage
- Securing remote access
- Timely implementation
