Today’s threat landscape is marked by increasingly sophisticated cyberattacks. Ransomware incidents grew by 18% in 2024, while the Dark Angels cybercrime group walked away from a single attack with a payout of $75 million. Ransomware-as-a-service is growing in popularity and zero-day attacks continue to be unleashed at a rapid pace. There is a clear rise in phishing, and the malicious use of artificial intelligence (AI) is bypassing traditional security measures.
All of this sets a hazardous stage for any organization trying to keep itself safe. But all is not lost. Compared to network-centric models, zero trust zero trust avoids the excessive permissions and implicit trust of traditional models that connect entities to the network.
The results speak for themselves.
