Zero trust explained
What is zero trust?
Assume zero trust when someone or something requests access to work assets. You must first verify their trustworthiness before granting access.
Why Cisco zero trust?
The Cisco Zero Trust security framework helps you prevent unauthorized access, contain breaches, and reduce the risk of an attacker's lateral movement through your network.
Modern enterprise challenges
Increased access
With more users, devices, and connections than ever across your network, applications, and in the cloud, how can you ensure that the right access is granted to each?
Increased attack surface
Having more users, devices (including IoT), applications, and servers expands your network perimeter. How can you exert control and reduce your overall attack surface?
Gaps in visibility
Your network has devices, users, wireless, and other connections. Meanwhile, your applications, servers, and databases are all talking to each other. How can you gain insight into potential security gaps?
A comprehensive zero-trust security approach
Better secure access across your applications and environment, from any user, device, and location. Cisco Zero Trust helps protect your workforce, workloads, and workplace.
Cisco Zero Trust allows you to:
- Consistently enforce policy-based controls
- Gain visibility into users, devices, components, and more across your entire environment
- Get detailed logs, reports, and alerts that can help you better detect and respond to threats
Provide more secure access, protect against gaps in visibility, and reduce your attack surface with Cisco Zero Trust.

Applications
Enforce access policies for every app with adaptive and role-based access controls.
Zero trust for workload
Tetration secures your workloads
Secure your hybrid, multicloud workloads and contain lateral movement with application segmentation from Cisco Tetration. Get complete visibility and determine the dependencies within databases and applications.
Visibility into workloads
Gain visibility into what is running and what is critical by identifying workloads and enforcing policies.
Application segmentation
Contain breaches and minimize lateral movement with application micro-segmentation.
Security alerts
Alert or block communication if policy is violated by continuously monitoring and responding to indicators of compromise.
Zero trust for workplace
SD-Access secures your workplace
Cisco Software-Defined Access (SD-Access) helps you gain insight into users and devices; and identify threats and maintain control over all connections across your network, including Internet of Things (IoT) devices like cameras, manufacturing equipment, heart pumps, and more.
Network access
Grant the right level of network access to users and devices with network authentication and authorization.
Network segmentation
Classify and segment users, devices, and applications on your network with network segmentation.
Contain threats
Contain infected endpoints and revoke network access by continuously monitoring and responding to threats.

Cisco deploys Duo for workforce zero trust
“Security is constantly changing. As we move forward, Duo is going to be a critical enabler to allow us to have zero trust. Where you are, what you want access to, from what devices, and being able to make that very dynamic. And that's what I'm looking forward to enabling through Duo and the Cisco Zero Trust platform.”
Steve Martino, CISO, Cisco
