Zero Trust Made Simple – Implementing Zero Trust Architecture for Identity, Access, and Network Security (C64-I)

This course teaches you how to design and implement Zero Trust security models that protect identity, access, and data across hybrid environments. You’ll gain: Zero Trust Foundations Understand the principles of Zero Trust: never trust, always verify Learn the evolution from perimeter-based to identity-centric security Explore NIST SP 800-207 and industry frameworks Architecture & Controls Design Zero Trust architectures for users, devices, and workloads Implement identity and access management (IAM), MFA, and conditional access Segment networks and enforce least privilege Monitoring & Enforcement Set up continuous authentication and behavioral analytics Monitor access patterns, anomalies, and policy violations Integrate with SIEM, SOAR, and endpoint protection platforms Integration & Governance Align Zero Trust with ISO 27001, NIS2, and DORA requirements Support compliance, audit readiness, and risk reduction Coordinate with IT, security, and governance teams Tools & Automation Use platforms like Microsoft Entra, Okta, Zscaler, and Palo Alto Prisma Automate policy enforcement, access reviews, and threat response Monitor Zero Trust maturity and KPIs Strategic Impact Reduce attack surface and lateral movement Enable secure remote work and cloud adoption Build trust with regulators, partners, and customers
