Over the past 28 months, two significant events happened which will change the way we build our IT networks. First, obviously, the pandemic. March 2020 caused the workers of the world to move their office cubes to their basements, bedrooms or even the family kitchen table. Remote work became essential for the economy to function. To facilitate access, we saw mass adoption of Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) technologies which do not require heritage based solutions like IPSec VPNs.

Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) Created in April of 2019 by Gartner, the term Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) represents a set of new technologies designed for secure access to private applications.

The term “ZTNA,” zero trust network access, has been around for years – first bursting onto the scene in 2017 when Gartner dropped the term in their ZTNA Market Guide. This solution quickly became the starting point for most zero trust projects in the industry since it helped solve a relatively simple, but critical problem – finding more secure ways of providing remote access to internal applications.
