Zero Trust Security
Zero Trust is a strategy for aligning security and the business.
With remote workforces and cloud computing, effective security requires identity-centric, fine-grained access controls driven by an automated platform.
Why Zero Trust Security?
In the dynamic landscape of relentless digital evolution, conventional security measures often fall short. Enter our Zero Trust Security approach, taking center stage to reshape your defense strategy. It's not about additional technology investments; it's about embracing a new mindset. Security should be intricately woven into every aspect of your operations, forming the expected shield around your digital assets and sensitive data. Every organization uses cloud applications.
Relying solely on perimeter defenses is no longer sufficient.
Zero Trust Security enables efficient collaboration with all the different actors like your customers, partners, and employees while recognizing that trust should never be assumed, and security demands unwavering vigilance.

How we approach each engagement
We follow Zero Trust Design Principles espoused by NIST and industry leaders.
ZeroTrust needs to align with business outcomes, not prevent the business from operating effectively
Start with the thing you want to protect. Identify the workflows, who would be doing them, and what they would be doing (apply Kipling method).
Knowing who/what needs access is key. In Zero Trust, access can only be obtained through evaluation and assignment of a policy to an identity.
All traffic going to and from a protect surface must be inspected and logged for malicious content and unauthorized activity, up through Layer 7.
How to get started with Zero Trust
Start small and iterate.
A common problem is trying to do everything all at once.
We break down the journey into iterations, which are focused on individual “protect surfaces”. This allows a bite sized, iterative approach to making progress with your Zero Trust journey.
Once fluency is established, apply to the most critical protect surfaces in the organization and work backwards from there.
Zero Trust Learning Curve
Maximize your organization with automation and process instrumentation.
To get started, Zero Trust Security doesn’t necessarily require new tools - just a new way of thinking and experts to help you get there using infrastructure and policy you already have.
Massive Scale advises an incremental, agile approach to Zero Trust, instead of ‘all or nothing’.
