With the zero trust model, the purpose is
to create a framework in which a person seeking information is authenticated every step of the way.
tenets of zero trust, and encryption of sensitive data while it’s in transit or at rest.
The right partnerships ensure success
Achieving a zero trust framework requires agencies to pick the policies and security practices that work best for them based
on the types of data they handle and the users who need access. But it doesn’t stop there. Agencies must continuously monitor, iterate, remediate and improve to ensure
an appropriate level of cybersecurity. Implementing this framework will require the right partnerships and government and industry collaboration.
Salesforce supports our customers in the journey toward zero trust by building security capabilities into our platform, including multi-factor authentication and multiple ways to encrypt data at rest.
A zero trust approach to security is necessary so that agencies can confidently
use cloud technology and so that they can provide assurance and data security for constituents sharing sensitive information with the government. For this to happen, agencies and their industry partners must move from “trust but verify” to “trust but verify and validate.”
