Zero Trust
A security model where access is continuously evaluated instead of being trusted by default after login.
Definition
Zero Trust is an access and security model in which no user, device, application, or service is automatically trusted because it is inside a network or has already authenticated once. Every access request is evaluated according to identity, context, target, purpose, and risk. The objective is to reduce implicit trust, prevent lateral movement, and enforce precise control over who can access what, under which conditions.
Why it matters
Zero Trust eliminates implicit trust from network location or prior authentication. In IAM, it means every access decision is evaluated against identity, context, resource sensitivity, and risk — continuously, not once.
The Ariovis perspective
Zero Trust is built in sequence: make identities reliable, control access, govern entitlements, reduce privilege and add contextual decisions. Ariovis does not present it as a single product deployment.
