Q . WHY IS CYBER VIGILANCE SO CRITICAL AND HOW CAN IT BE ACHIEVED WITH ZERO TRUST ?
» We ’ re currently living in a cyber insurgency , where the cyber space is becoming increasingly hostile and attacks are more destructive than ever before . The practice of suppressing intruders is critical to navigating this insurgency and remaining vigilant against cyber cartels , but this can only be upheld through a zero trust strategy .
It ' s critical that organisations take a proactive approach to security and acknowledge that threats exist both inside and outside of traditional network boundaries . A zero trust approach allows users access to only what ’ s necessary to effectively do their jobs , with continuous verification . The defender gains situational awareness as a result of adopting a zero-trust mindset , as well as a unified view of operations to help speed up detection and response to potential threats . In essence , zero trust instils the sensible notion of , ‘ prepare for the worst , and hope for the best ’, as organisations endeavour to give security teams the means to remain vigilant .”
