This approach emphasizes strict identity verification and continuous monitoring to protect sensitive resources. Advanced security tools, such as Next-Generation Firewalls (NGFWs), play a pivotal role in implementing this strategy. These technologies provide enhanced visibility and granular access control to meet the demands of hybrid and cloud-first environments.

Our cyber attack surface has expanded dramatically over the past five years, now encompassing our cloud estate, millions of devices at the edge, and mobile and remote workers, in addition to our internet-facing infrastructure. This expansion of the definition to include cloud, end-user, and internal assets has been driven by the increasing sophistication of cyber attacks. The table below breaks down today’s complex attack surface into several categories, based on a framework presented by…
