The number of attacks on IT organizations, state militaries, countries, and personal computers keeps on growing even now….
he term ‘Hacker’ has an interesting evolution. It was initially coined to describe experts who used their skills to re-develop mainframe systems, increasing their efficiency and allowing them to multi-task. Over time, the term has come to routinely describe skilled programmers who gain unauthorized access to computer systems by exploiting weaknesses or using bugs motivated by malice…
Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) demonstrates design and implementation principles for an organization’s IT infrastructure to secure data transformation. It outlines the technical framework and structure that organizations utilize to impose Zero Trust. Zero Trust Architecture Working Principles ZTA working principles include the following security technologies − 1. Real-time Monitoring Real-time monitoring in Zero-Trust Architecture (ZTA)…
The zero-trust model is a security model specifically designed to protect an organization by eliminating implicit trust and continuously assessing devices connected to the network. By utilizing robust authentication techniques, utilizing network segmentation, limiting lateral movement, offering Layer 7 threat protection, and streamlining granular, “least access” regulations, Zero Trust aims to protect existing systems and…
Zero Trust is a security framework based on “never trust, always verify.” This security trust continually evaluates for security configuration and posture before access to applications and data. Before giving access, each access request is completely authenticated, permitted, and encrypted. Microsegmentation and least-privilege access concepts are used to reduce lateral movement. It authenticates users not…

Almost every medium and large-scale organization has a presence on the Internet and has an organizational network connected to it. Network partitioning at the boundary between the outside Internet and the internal network is essential for network security. Sometimes the inside network (intranet) is referred to as the “trusted” side and the external Internet as…
Network access control is a method of enhancing the security of a private organizational network by restricting the availability of network resources to endpoint devices that comply with the organization’s security policy. A typical network access control scheme comprises of two major components such as Restricted Access and Network Boundary Protection. Restricted Access to the…
