Featured White Paper
Implementing a Zero Trust Architecture: NIST NCCoE
The NCCoE produced a document on Implementing Zero Trust Architecture, demonstrating proposed architecture(s) for on-premises and cloud environments that inherit ZTA solution characteristics outlined in NIST SP 800-207. The paper also discusses the impacts on the enterprise, administrator, and end-user when a ZTA strategy is employed.
In this resource, NextLabs reviews some of the key information of the NCCoE project in a summarized and easy-to-digest format.
