In the current scenario, Zero Trust is the most comprehensive approach to complement the perimeter-
based security architecture. The key principle of Zero Trust is based on the concept that no user, device
or application/services will be trusted by default, irrespective of its location. This technology is expected
to have widespread adoption in the current year as it accommodates the security principles required to
combat the increasing number of sophisticated attacks. All network-related entities must be contextually
authenticated on a continual basis to ensure that all diversions in their behavioral patterns are spotted
before a breach happens. Zero Trust fulfills the demands of a unified remote working experience through
hyper-converged technology and infrastructure. Looking past a pandemic-forced remote work towards a
hybrid workplace, the "built-in security" Zero Trust is a must-have project in 2022.
