1 of 8: On our journey to a #ZeroTrust #cybersecurity model, @Akamai is helping customers get there with us. How many of these 7 steps are you taking to adapt to a world of #ZeroTrust? (thread follows)
1. Provide users with application-only access, not network access—on a need-to-know basis, based on user identity, device posture, authentication and authorization
2. Eliminate the ever-growing list of holes punched in your firewall that expose your network infrastructure to the public internet. If malicious actors can’t find your network, they can’t attack it.
3. Enable WAF to protect corporate applications (#cybercriminals will hijack devices to attack applications thought to be safe behind firewall)
4. Put Identity, Authentication, and Authorization in place before providing access. Weak credentials, along with reuse of usernames and passwords across apps, expand attack surfaces.
5. Leverage DNS protocol as a security control point to help detect and stop #cyberattacks early.
6. Monitor Internet-bound traffic and activity to ensure traffic & data are not headed for malicious sites and to alert IT immediately of any suspicious activity.
7. Take this assessment to discover your organization’s level of preparedness for a #ZeroTrust #cybersecurity framework. Where are you on your journey? akamai.com/us/en/campaign…
