Why the Castle-and-Moat Model Failed
Traditional security relied on a strong perimeter. Once inside, users were trusted. In today's remote-first world, the perimeter has dissolved.
Never Trust, Always Verify
Zero Trust assumes that threats exist both inside and outside the network. every access request must be authenticated, authorized, and encrypted.
Identity as the New Perimeter
With users accessing data from anywhere, identity management (IAM) becomes the first line of defense. Multi-factor authentication (MFA) and least-privilege access are non-negotiable.
Micro-segmentation
By dividing the network into secure zones, we prevent lateral movement of attackers. Even if one segment is breached, the damage is contained.
