Zero Trust

The enterprise today has a much tougher job of ensuring maximum IT security at all possible points of connectivity. From the increase in flexible workers and remote access, through to cyber threats continuing to grow on a global scale, there has never been a greater need to ensure that preventative and protective security measures of the highest quality are put in place.

For the protection of systems and the safety of employees, clients and stakeholders, it is now vital to get to Zero Trust.

Getting to Zero Trust begins with the adoption of a Never Trust and Always Verify philosophy which implies that all identities, data and users within a system should be treated as digital resources. It encourages supervision of the digital environment and the collection of information in the process to greatly improve organisational security posture.

Using a standard which has been set out by the National Institute for Science and Technology (NIST) in the USA, Identity Methods focuses on mapping security products against NIST’s seven key tenets to help better structure, monitor and protect the connected enterprise.

By following the neutral, vendor-less NIST framework, organisational security can be adapted and improved, helping to procure solutions and services that put a safer future first.
