Verify explicitly.
Use identity, authentication strength, device health, and relevant context to inform access decisions.
CHECK THE REQUEST
A stronger approach to access. Put identity, context, and continuous verification at the center of your security.
Being inside a network should not mean having access to everything. Evaluate each request around who is asking, the device they use, and the resource they need.
Use identity, authentication strength, device health, and relevant context to inform access decisions.
CHECK THE REQUESTScope permissions to the task. Reduce standing privileges and limit how long sensitive access remains available.
REDUCE THE EXPOSUREDesign for a possible compromise. Segment resources, monitor activity, and reassess access when conditions change.
CONTAIN THE IMPACTChange the signals in this simplified policy demo to see how they affect access to a protected application.
All three signals satisfy this example policy.
Illustrative demo only. No real authentication or security enforcement.
Get to know the approach behind Zero Trust.
No. It is an approach to designing access and security. Identity systems, device management, application controls, and monitoring can all contribute to its implementation.
Network location alone should not establish trust. A request should also be evaluated using identity, permissions, device posture, and other relevant policy signals.
Not necessarily. Systems can use session and risk signals to evaluate access without repeatedly interrupting the user. A change in risk may trigger additional verification.
Start by identifying the applications and data you need to protect, mapping who needs access, and defining clear policies. Expand verification, least privilege, and monitoring in manageable stages.
