How does Zero Trust address the challenges of securing containerized applications?

Zero Trust secures containerized applications against unauthorized access and vulnerabilities by enforcing strict access controls at various levels, such as network, application, and data. Within a Zero Trust framework, containerized applications are protected by verifying the identity of users and devices before granting access, continuously monitoring and logging all activities, encrypting data both in transit and at rest, and implementing micro-segmentation to isolate components within the application environment. Additionally, zero-trust principles involve regularly updating software, conducting vulnerability assessments, and applying security patches to reduce the attack surface and prevent security breaches.
