Overview

Zero trust is a strategy that identifies critical, high-risk resources and greatly reduces the risk of a breach. Zero trust accomplishes this by leveraging key tools, technologies, and governance around Privileged Access Management (PAM).  These identities and accounts that have elevated access are the key targets of the bad actors and nearly every event, breach, or incident that occurs is the result of a privileged account being broken into.  Many organizations struggle to control these elevated accounts, what tools to pick, how to implement them correctly, and implement proper governance to ensure success in their zero trust strategy. This book defines a strategy for zero trust success that includes a privileged access strategy with key tactical decisions and actions to guarantee victory in the never-ending war against the bad actors.
