Zero-trust - An Introduction

by Tom Madsen

Overview

The book provides you with information on how to implement and manage a zero-trust architecture across these different layers of an infrastructure. It is an introduction to the overall purpose of zero-trust and the benefits that zero-trust can bring to an infrastructure, across many different technologies:

• Cloud
• Networking
• Identity management
• Operational Technology (OT)
• 5G

Zero-trust is not a product, but a way of thinking about design and architecture. Cisco and Microsoft are used as the technology vendors, but the steps and information are equally applicable to other technology vendors.
