Zero Trust is a modern security model that assumes no entity should be trusted by default. It's a cloud security model that aims to prevent unauthorized access to data and services. Unlike traditional perimeter-based models, Zero Trust assumes that threats can originate from both inside and outside the network. Our specialists bring deep expertise in implementing Zero Trust architectures tailored to client needs, ensuring robust protection for users, devices, applications, and data. Through continuous verification and strict access controls, we provide advanced protection of systems to reduce the risk of attacks, increase the effort and cost required by adversaries, and improve interoperability across components of client networks.

ZRA has supported the development of Zero Trust guidance for agencies across the federal civilian enterprise. We have played an integral role in the work introduced to federal civilian agencies through CISA's Trusted Internet Connections (TIC) program, which provides guidance on securing federal networks from the public internet. Our team supported the creation of CISA's Zero Trust Maturity Model, as well as the creation of the Department of Homeland Security's (DHS) report to Congress on Zero Trust Implementation within the federal government, and Zero Trust Playbook to guide agency implementation.

Implementing Zero Trust can be complex, but our tailored approach ensures a seamless transition. Our solutions assess current systems, identify vulnerabilities, and design a phased implementation plan that minimizes disruption. These solutions adapt to hybrid and distributed work environments, enabling secure access to resources regardless of location. With our guidance, clients can confidently adopt the Zero Trust model, reducing the risk of breaches while maintaining compliance with regulatory requirements.
