Zero Trust Architecture
Intermediate 5 hours English Completion Certificate Certificate
About this course
This course covers zero trust security from principles to implementation: moving from perimeter-based 'castle and moat' security to continuous verification, identity-centric access control, microsegmentation, and least privilege enforcement.
Students learn to implement zero trust using real tools and frameworks: NIST SP 800-207 zero trust architecture, Microsoft's zero trust model, and practical implementation with identity providers, endpoint management, and network segmentation technologies.
What you'll learn
Understand zero trust principles and how they differ from perimeter security
Design identity-centric access control with MFA and conditional access
Implement microsegmentation to limit lateral movement
Apply least privilege access across users, devices, and applications
Create a zero trust roadmap for an existing enterprise environment

Frequently asked questions
A strategy — multiple vendors sell 'zero trust' products, but the architecture is vendor-neutral. This course teaches the principles, not a specific vendor's implementation.
Typically 2-5 years for full enterprise implementation — the course covers phased adoption approaches.
