Trust No More: A Guide to Zero Trust Data Security for Federal Government Data

trust no more

According to a report, data breaches at local, state, and federal agencies over the past eight years cost governments some $26 billion.

The conventional approach to security that relies on perimeter-based measures is no longer enough to protect against sophisticated attacks. Malicious actors have shown their ability to circumvent traditional defenses.

Enter Zero Trust: a security model gaining traction, particularly within the US government may just be the answer to the data security and compliance challenges faced by government agencies. A recent executive order mandates federal agencies migrate to Zero Trust, and the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has published guidance to aid them in building this new security architecture.

This whitepaper highlights the growing importance of a zero-trust security architecture for critical government data. Learn about:

  • The recent mandates that require federal agencies to migrate to zero trust
  • Core requirements to implement zero-trust for federal agencies
  • How Fortanix helps implement a zero-trust data security architecture?
