Supply Chain Zero Trust Security
Security models that assume no entity inside or outside the network is trusted by default.
With the proliferation of IoT devices and third-party vendors, the attack surface of supply chains has exploded. Zero Trust architecture enforces strict identity verification and least-privilege access for every user and device, preventing lateral movement during cyberattacks.
