Thought of the week. What security measures would you use to support the fundamentals when we think of CIA (Confidentiality, Integrity, and Availability)? Let's dive into something exciting! I've crafted a unique phrase for our security measures: SMART. S (Security) M (Measures) A (Are) R (Right) T (There) It is a catchphrase that could stick with yourself and others. 💡 Use strong encryption on your Wi-Fi at home and corporate networks and when you secure your data. 💡 Use authentication and authorization methods to ensure strict access controls to your personal devices and network resources. 💡 Protect against vulnerabilities by updating and patching all devices and security systems. 💡 Remember to back up data for those days when accidents happen. Just picture this: You're the guide, pointing out all the security measures that can support best practices. Image-AI Generated (Canva)

Why are "Zero Trust" security models being adopted by organizations? It focuses on verifying every access request or system action from an internal or external source. This approach, combined with continuous monitoring and detection strategies, helps to reduce the likelihood of undetected threats. "Zero Trust" assumes no one, whether inside or outside an organization's network, should be trusted by default. This approach challenges the traditional security model, which often trusts users and devices once they are inside the network perimeter. Instead, Zero Trust enforces strict verification of every user, device, application, and connection, regardless of origin. I'd like to hear your comments. If you want to learn more, please message me. Below are the core principles of Zero Trust: 1. Never Trust, Always Verify 2. Least-Privilege Access 3. Micro-Segmentation 4. Continuous Monitoring and Verification 5. Contextual Access Control 6. Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)
