The Inevitable Ascent of Zero Trust

Zero Trust, as the name implies, is a security model built around the idea that nothing inside or outside of an organization can be trusted.

The foundation of Zero Trust architecture came from the Jericho Forum in the early 2000s, where security specialists discussed cloud computing and de-perimeterization.

The Zero Trust model greatly benefits from AI’s ability to make predictions based on aggregating and analyzing data. It allows organizations to move away from one- and two-factor authentication strategies that have long been examined and exploited by threat actors.

Trust, when vetted by AI, becomes a continuous process of safe and expected engagements rather than a one-time presentation of credentials.
