Zero Trust

Zero Trust — A security model that continuously verifies access rather than assuming trust from network location alone.

Why Zero Trust matters in finance

It is useful in distributed financial environments where users, workloads and vendors operate across many boundaries.

Security is also a market-infrastructure question

In financial services, zero trust should be understood in relation to operational continuity, data integrity, payments, market infrastructure and interconnected dependencies. A control can be technically effective while still leaving material resilience risk if critical services cannot continue or recover during disruption.
