Identity-Centric Approach to 'Zero Trust': Going Beyond Perimeter Security
The "zero trust" security model emphasizes that enterprises should have a "trusted" internal network and an "untrusted" external network.

Instead, we need to securely enable access for the various stakeholders regardless of their location, device or network.
