What is Zero Trust Security?
Key Principles of Zero Trust
- Verify Explicitly: Always authenticate and authorize based on all available data points, including user identity, location, device health, service or workload, data classification, and anomalies.
- Use Least Privileged Access: Grant users and devices only the minimum access privileges required to perform their tasks. This limits the potential damage if an account is compromised.
- Assume Breach: Design your systems and defenses as if a breach has already occurred or is imminent. This leads to a proactive approach to security.
Why is Zero Trust Crucial for Businesses in Japan?
- Protecting Against Insider Threats: Many breaches originate from within. Zero Trust ensures that even internal users are verified, mitigating risks from compromised credentials or malicious insiders.
- Securing Remote and Hybrid Work: With a growing number of employees working remotely, Zero Trust provides consistent security policies regardless of location, securing access to corporate resources from any device.
- Enhancing Regulatory Compliance: As data privacy regulations evolve globally and in Japan (e.g., APPI), Zero Trust’s granular control over access and data helps organizations meet compliance requirements.
