Zero Trust Identity: A Practical Introduction

A practical, jargon-free introduction to Zero Trust principles and a realistic phased approach starting with MFA and least-privilege access.

1. The Core Principle

Zero Trust means never trusting a user or device by default, regardless of network location.

2. Strong Identity Verification

MFA should apply everywhere, not just administrator accounts.

3. Device Posture & Micro-Segmentation

Verify device health before granting access. Micro-segmentation limits lateral movement.

4. Where to Start

Begin with MFA everywhere and a least-privilege access review — the two changes with highest impact-to-effort ratio.
