Example Concept: Zero Trust Architecture in a cloud environment requires continuous verification of user identities and device health before granting access to resources. This involves using identity and access management (IAM) to enforce strict authentication and authorization policies, implementing micro-segmentation to limit lateral movement, and leveraging cloud-native security tools to monitor and respond to threats in real-time. By integrating these practices, organizations can ensure that all access requests are authenticated, authorized, and encrypted, thereby reducing the risk of unauthorized access and data breaches.
