This book is about the Zero Trust Framework. Essentially this is a methodology where the IT/Network Infrastructure of a business is segmented into smaller islands each having its own lines of defense. This is primarily achieved through the use of Multifactor Authentication (MFA) where at least three more authentication layers are used preferably being different from one another. Another key aspect of the Zero Trust Framework is known as Privileged Access Management (PAM). This is an area of Cybersecurity where the protection of superuser accounts rights and privileges must be protected at all costs from Cyberattackers. In this regard this is where the Zero Trust Framework and PAM intertwine especially in a Cloud-based platform such as Microsoft Azure. However as it has been reviewed in one of our previous books the use of passwords is now becoming a nemesis not only for individuals but for businesses as well. It is hoped that by combining the Zero Trust Framework with PAM password use can be eradicated altogether thus giving rise to a passwordless society. |The Zero Trust Framework and Privileged Access Management (PAM)
