Zero trust security is a popular approach that organizations are adopting to protect their networks from internal and external threats. It involves implementing a set of security principles, such as verifying every time, using least privilege for access, and assuming a breach has already occurred. Zero trust is particularly relevant in today's modern IT environments where remote working and cloud-based networks are prevalent. However, organizations often struggle to adopt zero trust due to the need for a new security paradigm, lack of resources and skills, and concerns about complexity. Nevertheless, building a zero trust policy can be achieved by breaking it down into manageable parts and leveraging existing technology and managed services. The key is to choose tools from best-of-breed vendors that align with the zero trust model and provide effective protection against cyber security breaches.

Insider threats, where employees exploit their privileged access to steal or leak confidential data, are on the rise. Negligent employees or contractors are responsible for most insider incidents. Layoffs and workforce reductions increase the risk of departing employees taking sensitive information with them. Third-party relationships can also be a source of insider threats if access is not immediately revoked. The rise of "resenteeism," where dissatisfied employees openly express their grievances, can drive malicious insider incidents. Financial hardship and increasing stress levels among employees also contribute to insider threats. Organizations need to implement a Zero Trust and least privilege approach to minimize the risk of insider attacks.
