Zero-trust is the logical successor to the legacy perimeter security model, but there are many common pitfalls to consider. Whether companies know it or not, we’re all on a journey toward zero-trust security. This concept, which can be summarized as “never trust; always verify,” has been around for over a decade as a security focus on least privilege. However, the pandemic brought it to the forefront, as corporate offices emptied and millions of workers started working from home. So, in a relatively short period, tens of thousands of companies inadvertently accelerated their zero-trust journey, often without a well-thought-out plan.
