Without a robust cybersecurity plan, the new-age technologies can contribute to more vulnerability which would mean loss of critical data.”

He also claims, “Zero Trust shifts how we fundamentally approach security from reliance solely on perimeter defenses to a proactive strategy which only allows trusted activity across ecosystems and data pipelines. It enables organizations to better align their cybersecurity strategy across the data center, clouds and at the edge. In an ever-changing technology landscape it will help us to not only protect data but also lower breach risk significantly. Zero Trust is not a single product or is it a single technique. It is based on a philosophy which brings in people, policies, technology and enterprises. Zero Trust will fail if not applied as an overarching philosophy to workforce, device, network, data security, analytics, automation and orchestration. Simply put, a Zero Trust plan needs to be strengthened everyday. There is a need for ongoing administration. Zero Trust models rely on strictly defined permissions, but companies are always evolving.  Keeping access accurate and up to date requires ongoing input, which can be overwhelming for businesses and communities nevertheless, Zero Trust is essential in the data era.”
