Comprehensive Asset Discovery and Risk Identification
Thorough Categorization: Classify systems and information based on impact analysis.
• Prioritization:
Identify threats and vulnerabilities across all assets.
• Six Pillars of Zero Trust: Identity, Endpoint, Network, Data, Application, and Infrastructure.
Key Questions:
• What types of data do you create, process, and store? Are they classified, labeled, and encrypted?
• What applications do you access? Are they in the cloud or on-premises?
• What types of infrastructure do you manage-in the cloud or on-premises?
• Who has access to your resources? How is authentication and authorization enforced?
• From which endpoints is access allowed? How is device management performed?
Assessment
• Ongoing Evaluation: Conduct continuous risk assessments to intercept and verify each request.
• Signal Analysis: Use signals from user, location, device compliance, data sensitivity, and application type.
• Defense-in-Depth: Implement strong multifactor authentication, device compliance checks, network micro-segmentation, and data encryption.
Key Benefits:
• Reduce unauthorized access with strong identity verification.
• Minimize attack surface with least-privilege access.
• Encrypt data in transit and at rest to mitigate data breaches.
Visibility and Reporting at All Levels
• Granular Visibility: Evaluate, log, and report risks at the single-user level.
• Integrated Tools: Use IT and security tools to detect breach indicators and associated risks.
• Aggregated Risk View: Provide senior management and auditors with a comprehensive view of the organization’s risk posture.
Key Insights:
• Associate high-volume data access and transfer with potential breaches.
• Offer detailed threat and vulnerability data for thorough investigation.
• Continuously review and improve risk management strategies based on insights.
