Loading...Introduction to Zero Trust Architecture
Last quarter, our team discovered that our existing security measures were not sufficient to protect our Azure-based infrastructure from increasingly sophisticated threats. We realized that a Zero Trust architecture was essential for our modern applications. Here's what I learned when implementing Zero Trust with Azure Active Directory (Azure AD) and Azure Policy.
The Problem with Traditional Security Models
Most docs skip the hard part - implementing a Zero Trust model in a production environment. Traditional security models rely on a perimeter-based approach, which assumes that everything inside the network is trusted. However, with the rise of cloud computing, mobile devices, and IoT, this approach is no longer effective. I realized that Zero Trust is not just a buzzword, but a necessary shift in our security paradigm.
Implementing Zero Trust with Azure AD
When I first tried to implement Zero Trust with Azure AD, it broke because I didn't configure the conditional access policies correctly.
