NIST
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) plays a key role in defining and promoting Zero Trust security. NIST develops cybersecurity standards and guidelines, including the foundational NIST Special Publication 800-207, which outlines the Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) framework. The publication emphasizes continuous verification, segmentation, automation, and identity-based access controls to minimize security risks. NIST’s recommendations support organizations in implementing strong Identity and Access Management (IAM), multi-factor authentication (MFA), microsegmentation, and data encryption to enhance Zero Trust security.
