B. Zero trust network

B. Zero trust network

A zero trust network is a security model that assumes that every user, device, and application attempting to access the network is a potential threat, regardless of whether they are inside or outside the network perimeter. It verifies every incoming connection before allowing access to the network and imposes strict conditions such as least privilege access, microsegmentation, and continuous monitoring. In the given scenario, Eric implemented a technique for securing the cloud resources used by his organization that assumes by default that a user attempting to access the network is not an authentic entity and verifies every incoming connection before allowing access to the network. He also imposed conditions such that employees can access only the resources required for their role. This is a typical example of the zero trust security model, which is designed to prevent unauthorized access to network resources and protect against potential security breaches.
