The objective of this project is to design and implement a Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) system that enforces continuous identity verification, device validation, and least-privilege access control across distributed enterprise networks.
Study Zero Trust Architecture principles and network security models.
Compare traditional perimeter security vs Zero Trust approaches.
Design a network architecture enforcing least-privilege access.
Implement identity verification before resource access.
Integrate device posture validation checks.
Enforce micro-segmentation for internal resources.
Implement continuous session validation mechanisms.
Monitor access behavior and detect anomalies.
Simulate insider threat scenarios.
Evaluate reduction in lateral movement risks.
Document implementation challenges and security improvements.
