This article outlines an approach to model NIST’s Zero Trust Security Architecture while migrating to MS Azure but still working with hybrid cloud deployments, and using tools and services offered by Azure.
What Is a Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA)?
The term ZTA has been in use in the domain of enterprise security models and architectures for organizations since 2010 when Forrester coined the term but became popular after NIST published it as a framework (SP 800-207, final version published in Aug. 2020). ZTA further got a lot of visibility after the US govt recently mandated all Federal agencies to adopt ZTA.
