Zero Trust is more than just a buzzword in cybersecurity — it’s quickly becoming the standard approach for protecting businesses of all sizes. And with compliance requirements tightening, it’s only a matter of time before this becomes the norm for everyone.
So, what is it? In simple terms, Zero Trust means no application, login, or device is automatically trusted. Only pre-approved users and apps get through, and everything else is blocked.
Think of it like running a shopping mall. If every door is wide open, security guards and cameras have to guess who might be a threat — and mistakes are inevitable. But in a Zero Trust mall, only people you personally invited can enter. That way, the risk is drastically reduced.
On a computer network, that means everyday tools like Office or QuickBooks are allowed, but unvetted or suspicious applications are denied by default.
The benefit? You stop threats before they sneak in, giving you peace of mind that your business, staff, and sensitive data are secure.
