This guide explains why government agencies must adopt a zero-trust security model as hybrid work, legacy systems, and rising cyberattacks render perimeter-based defenses ineffective. It outlines how zero trust assumes continuous threat presence and applies security controls to every user, device, and action—especially high-risk activities such as opening email attachments, clicking web links, or using USB devices. The document highlights endpoint-enforced zero trustusing hardware-assisted isolation, enabling malware to be contained and destroyed without impacting user productivity. The approach reduces SOC workload, limits breach impact, and helps agencies meet federal cybersecurity mandates while maintaining operational continuity.
