Secure-by-Design and Zero-Trust

As hyperconnectivity becomes endemic to IT operations monitoring and management, and as technology and organizational siloes are dismantled, modern enterprises find that their IT ops and IT security domains are increasingly overlapped. The advent of AIOps, enabling real-time discovery of configuration items, has revealed the full scope of the environment that CTOs need to manage and that CISOs need to protect.

  Secure-by-Design: An approach to building technology products so that they are inherently secure in their construct and operation. This includes processes and elements like rigorous code testing during DevOps, use of strong passwords and authentication, seamless interoperability with complementary technologies, ongoing support, test and process automation, and compliance with security and privacy regulations.

  Zero-Trust: Defined by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) as “an evolving set of cybersecurity paradigms that move defenses from static, network-based perimeters to focus on users, assets, and resources.” NIST defines Zero Trust Architecture as using “zero trust principles to plan industrial and enterprise infrastructure and workflows.”
