What is Zero Trust Architecture?

Zero Trust Architecture treats a caller’s network location or device ownership as insufficient grounds for trust. Authentication and authorization apply to the requested resource.

Common principles include:

  • Verify explicitly: Authenticate and authorize using the evidence your policy requires
  • Least privilege: Grant the access needed for the task
  • Assume breach: Limit the effect of a compromised credential or system

The identity, device, and session controls depend on the implementation and deployment.

How LayerV Implements This

LayerV lets owners issue access links scoped to a resource, with expiry and supported policies. Use application sign-in when verified user identity is required. LayerV can complement existing identity, network, and application security controls.

Pilot LayerV

Tell us what to protect, and we’ll scope a pilot.

Enterprise starts with a scoped, paid pilot on one application, typically 60 to 90 days, credited in full toward year one if you convert within 60 days. Then an annual package sized to what you protect. Not per seat.
