Secure Workload Access on Your Journey to Zero Trust

The increasing data breaches and ransomware attacks continue to make front-page headlines. As we all know and accept now, it’s not if a breach will happen but when. The real damage continues to happen when workloads are compromised and attackers are able to move laterally— from web server, to app server to the database server, for example. Securing workloads that make up your applications is critical to the overall Zero Trust Architecture. While Zero Trust network access (ZTNA) provides capabilities to secure user access to the application, secure workload access applies Zero Trust principles to the individual workload and the communications across workloads within and across clouds.
