How does zero trust strengthen the management and security of privileged accounts?
Zero trust strengthens the management and security of privileged accounts by implementing strict access controls and continuous monitoring. It assumes that threats can be both external and internal, and therefore every request to access a privileged account is verified and authenticated. This approach limits the possibility of unauthorized access and reduces the risk of credential theft or misuse. Additionally, zero trust frameworks often incorporate multi-factor authentication, encryption, and least privilege access principles to further enhance security.
