Zero Trust Architectures in Hybrid Cloud Environments

Abstract

The new approach in the field of cybersecurity is known as Zero Trust Architecture, emphasizing the "never trust, always verify" principle. This manuscript presents the implementation of ZTA within hybrid cloud environments, discussing complex issues related to identity management, network segmentation, and data protection.  Using the comprehensive analysis of existing literature along with statistical evaluation, this research study will showcase the effectiveness of ZTA for risk mitigation and resilience in a hybrid cloud setup. The results are very actionable for the organizations trying to secure their hybrid infrastructures and maintain operational agility.
