Zero Trust Security Framework
Zero Trust Security Framework is a case interview framework for cybersecurity, cloud migration, transformation. Use for cloud security, remote workforce protection, and regulated environment cases
When to use it
Use for cloud security, remote workforce protection, and regulated environment cases
Where it fits
Best for cybersecurity transformation, cloud security, and compliance cases
How to use it in a case
Apply zero-trust principle across all dimensions: Never trust by default, verify everything. Implement controls for: identity (who you are), device (what you're using), network (where you're coming from), workload (what application), data (what you're accessing), behavior (what you're doing).
- Identity & Access. Multi-factor auth, continuous verification, least privilege, identity governance
- Device Security. Device health assessment, endpoint protection, configuration compliance
- Network Segmentation. Micro-segmentation, application-level controls, encrypted connections
- Workload Security. Container security, runtime protection, vulnerability management
- Data Protection. Encryption, classification, DLP, privacy controls
- Behavior Monitoring. Continuous monitoring, threat detection, incident response
Case types
Cybersecurity, Cloud Migration, Transformation.
