How implementing a trust fabric strengthens identity and network
Ensuring that only authorized end users and applications can access your enterprise data is fundamental to strong IT security. But traditional identity access management (IAM) security comes with multiple challenges, including the rise of AI deepfakes and other AI-enabled threats. In this article, Microsoft explains its zero-trust approach to security.
A trust fabric is a comprehensive approach that integrates identity, network access, and endpoint controls to secure digital interactions. It moves beyond traditional identity and access management by creating a unified system that evaluates the trustworthiness of both human and non-human identities in real-time. This approach is essential as organizations face increasing complexities in cyber threats and the need for secure access across various platforms.
Why is Zero Trust important?
Zero Trust is crucial as it shifts the focus of cybersecurity from static network perimeters to a more dynamic approach that emphasizes verifying users, assets, and resources. It is built on principles such as explicit verification, least-privileged access, and assuming breaches may occur. This model supports the development of a trust fabric by ensuring that access is continuously evaluated and secured, adapting to the evolving landscape of cyber threats.
