Zero Trust Solutions
Organizations that adopt Zero Trust principles assume every connection, device, and user is a potential cybersecurity threat. With growing threats like persistent ransomware and credential theft, delaying a Zero Trust strategy increases business risk. By eliminating implicit trust, the Zero Trust model advocates for a security policy in which nobody is inherently deemed safe, regardless of role or responsibility.
Entrust delivers enterprise-grade Zero Trust security solutions designed to protect users, devices, applications, and data across complex IT environments. Taking a Zero Trust approach allows you to enhance data security without compromising user experience. And, as demonstrated in an IDC Business Value Report, with Entrust Zero Trust solutions, our customers have experienced simplified operations, reduced costs, increased security, and improved overall business value.

Core Components of a Zero Trust Security Practice
Fundamentally, there are three Zero Trust principles integral to this unique security policy.
Assume Breach
A Zero Trust security architecture advocates the belief that data breaches are inevitable. It emphasizes the importance of minimizing the attack surface through microsegmentation, encryption, and conditional access control policies.
Continuous Authentication
Zero Trust doesn't mean "no trust," but rather "no implicit trust." In order to achieve this, it's recommended to implement the "Never Trust, Always Verify" best practice principle to every user and device prior to granting access to any networks, systems, or applications.
Least Privilege Access
Compromised credentials are the root cause of many cybersecurity incidents. In turn, Zero Trust security solutions require you to limit privileged access, ensuring your critical assets and systems can only be accessed by the right entity (user or device), in the right way, at the right time.

FAQs
What are zero trust security solutions?
Zero trust security solutions are integrated technologies and policies designed to continuously verify users, devices, and applications before granting access to systems or data. Instead of assuming trust based on network location, a Zero Trust solution enforces least-privilege access and ongoing authentication to reduce risk across the enterprise.
How does zero trust security work?
Zero trust security works by verifying every access request in real time. Users and devices must authenticate their identity, meet security requirements, and prove authorization before accessing applications or data. Access is limited to only what is needed, and trust is never assumed, even after initial login.
What problems do zero trust security solutions help solve?
Zero trust security solutions help organizations reduce the risk of ransomware, credential theft, insider threats, and lateral movement within networks. They address challenges created by hybrid work, cloud adoption, third-party access, and complex IT environments where traditional perimeter defenses fall short.
What companies should use zero trust security solutions?
Any organization that manages sensitive data, supports remote or hybrid work, or operates in regulated industries can benefit from zero trust security solutions. Enterprises, financial institutions, government agencies, and growing mid-sized companies often adopt a Zero Trust solution to strengthen security while maintaining operational flexibility.
How is zero trust different from traditional network security?
Traditional network security assumes users and devices inside the perimeter can be trusted. Zero trust eliminates that assumption. Every access request is verified, access is limited by role and context, and security controls extend across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments. The result is stronger protection without relying on a fixed network boundary.
