Implementing Zero Trust Security in Cloud-Native Environments by Shashi Prakash Patel | HackerNoon
Briefly

Cloud-native architectures drive innovation but also complicate security. Traditional perimeter-based security models are ineffective in decentralized environments. Zero Trust Security emerges as a solution, founded on the principle of 'never trust, always verify.' It requires continuous verification of all users and devices, eliminating implicit trust. This approach, crucial for environments utilizing microservices and APIs, enables enhanced visibility and tightly controlled access. Zero Trust ensures that security is integrated throughout the architecture, addressing threats that can originate from any location.
Zero Trust Security fundamentally redefines how organizations approach security, requiring continuous verification of every user, device, and application, regardless of their location.
Zero Trust eliminates implicit trust, shifting toward identity-centric, context-aware, and policy-driven access control, essential in environments where microservices and APIs communicate dynamically.
