This joint NSA & CISA cybersecurity information sheet (CSI) makes recommendations for implementing Zero Trust (ZT) security principles in a cloud environment, which can differ from on-premises (on-prem) networks. While on-prem networks require specialized appliances to enable ZT, cloud technologies natively provide the necessary infrastructure and services for implementing these recommendations to varying degrees. This CSI focuses on best practices using features commonly available in cloud environments.
