Identity Management: A Foundation for ‘Zero Trust’ Security

The traditional perimeter-based security model is obsolete. Instead of believing everything inside the corporate firewall is safe, the Zero Trust model assumes breach and a “never trust, always verify” access approach.

Identity – whether it represents a person, a service, or an Internet of Things (IoT) device – is one of the foundational elements of a Zero Trust framework. This e-book will help you understand what a modern identity solution should look like. You’ll learn:

• Why identities are a logical starting point for implementing a phased Zero Trust security model.
• The four key requirements for implementing strong identity.
• Why Microsoft 365 E5, with its strong authentication, identity protection, and access control capabilities, provides a solid foundation for organizations to get started on their Zero Trust journey.
