The four stages of creating a trust fabric with identity and network security
This interesting article from Microsoft will help you understand the four stages of creating a digital trust "fabric" to strengthen security for your distributed enterprise. Zero trust is an approach to security that continuously monitors and authenticates users and applications to make sure they are, in fact, authorized to access the data or applications. Read this article to learn more about Microsoft security and zero trust solutions.
What is the trust fabric journey?
The trust fabric journey consists of four stages that organizations can follow to evaluate, improve, and evolve their identity and network access security posture. It provides a structured approach for organizations, regardless of size, to establish a digital trust fabric that secures access for trustworthy identities from any location to any application or resource, whether on-premises or in the cloud.
What are the key principles of Zero Trust?
The Zero Trust security strategy is grounded in three key principles: verify explicitly, ensure least-privilege access, and assume breach. These principles guide organizations in establishing essential defenses against identity attacks, which have seen a significant increase, with Microsoft tracking over 4,000 password attacks per second in 2023.
How can organizations secure access for external users?
To secure access for external users, organizations should implement granular Conditional Access policies, ensure proper governance of external identities, and create user-centric experiences that facilitate secure engagement. This includes protecting customer-facing applications and customizing sign-up and sign-in processes to enhance security while maintaining usability.
