Zero Trust
A security model that verifies every access request, rather than trusting anything just because it's "inside" the network.
Older security models assumed anything inside the company network was safe. Zero Trust assumes nothing is automatically trusted — every user and device has to prove who they are and that they're allowed access, every time, regardless of whether they're in the office or working remotely. It's less a single product and more a set of principles (strong identity checks, least-privilege access, continuous verification) implemented across a business's tools.
