- This aspect of the zero trust model allows organizations to proactively identify and respond to cyber threats.
The National Security Agency (NSA) has recently published a cybersecurity information sheet that emphasizes the importance of integrating the visibility and analytics pillar of the zero trust model for organizations. This pillar allows organizations to harness infrastructure, tools, data, and techniques to proactively identify, mitigate, and respond to cyber risks and threats. According to Dave Luber, the director of cybersecurity at NSA, visibility and analytics are essential components of any zero trust strategy.
To fully utilize the capabilities of the visibility and analytics pillar, the NSA recommends that organizations focus on activity logging, utilize security and risk analytics, centralize security information and event management, develop user and entity behavior analytics, automate dynamic policies, and integrate threat intelligence. By following these guidelines, organizations can enhance their cybersecurity posture and better protect their digital assets.
