What are the 5 pillars of Zero Trust? [Quick Question Ep. 4]
What are the five pillars of Zero Trust? Across Zero Trust frameworks, five control points remain consistent: users, devices, networks, applications, and data. In this episode of Quick Question, we cover how each pillar generates critical security data, and why that data often lives in disconnected tools, leaving organizations with a fragmented view.
The episode also covers how a data mesh acts as the unifying layer across all five pillars, enabling machine learning and AI to analyze activity spikes, flag correlations, and strengthen mission resiliency, aligned with frameworks like NIST, the US Department of Defense, and Australia's Cyber Security Center.
