Solving for the long run All these limitations drive the requirements for the transformation of network security and how information security is approached altogether. Some of this transformation was in progress before the pandemic, but it accelerated rapidly out of necessity when it struck. Zero Trust is still riding the hype curve, and many fragmented point solutions exist that address specific use cases without accounting for the bigger picture. This bigger picture is the need to decouple security from the underlying network construct to avoid the traditional cybersecurity vs. networking trade-offs that either cripple network availability or the security posture. There is also a need for ubiquitous access policy management (across all domains) and simplification via automation of cybersecurity operations to accelerate detection and response times. An ideal Zero Trust Access (ZTA) platform should deliver full visibility about what’s flowing through the network (users, devices, apps) by integrating with existing identity providers (IDP). The solution should also provide a unified policy management plane across multiple domains that would address the need for ubiquity and agility. It’s just then, through a single pane of glass across all domains, that the never-ending Zero Trust journey to eliminate the attack surface can start. Organizations can begin by securing the crown jewels first, or by piloting Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) to secure access for the hybrid workforce. Alternatively, Network Security Architects may choose to learn the ropes of Zero Trust network security by addressing the sprawl of IoT in the workplace. Whatever the most pressing use case may be, the worst they can do is to lose sight of the long game: that the same solution should address all use cases and avoid network chokepoints that prevent scalability. The ideal end game is a distributed architecture where multi-domain policies are managed centrally but distributed and enforced as close to the resources as possible, with continuous identity verification via integration with any flavor of IDP, including those providing telemetry about health status and other contextual attributes alongside identity. By making identity, context, and behavior the new (and now dynamic) enterprise perimeter, it becomes easier to manage risk and implement a potent cyber defense system that works under the Zero Trust paradigm.
