In our rapidly changing digital world, agencies must evolve security strategies. A goal of Zero Trust is to create a security and network architecture that is dynamic, adaptable, and protected. The Executive Order on Cybersecurity has moved the term “Zero Trust” from a buzzword to a much-needed baseline for action planning around how we secure agency data and systems. Agencies must leverage Zero Trust principles to never trust, always verify, and only allow access when contextual parameters are met. Identity sits at the heart of Zero Trust. In a perimeter-less world, agencies must protect identities to stop adversaries from getting into our networks, moving laterally, escalating privileges, and ultimately accessing and manipulating our data. Leveraging ICAM and robust identity security strategies enables agencies to move from a network-based approach to a data-centric approach to defending systems.
