Stands for: Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA)
A security model that trusts nothing by default and verifies every request, wherever it comes from.
Zero trust replaces the old "trusted inside, hostile outside" perimeter with continuous verification of identity, device, and context for every access, inside the network or not. "Never trust, always verify" is the slogan; least privilege and microsegmentation are how it is built.
Also known as: zero-trust, zta, never trust always verify, ztna
