If you’re familiar with the Zero Trust framework, its principles may seem simple enough in the context of network security. Nobody — not even your most senior leaders — can be granted user access without first being checked at the gate.

Here’s the challenge: Traditional perimeters are a thing of the past given the rising adoption of the cloud. Cloud spend in Asia Pacific grew 10% year-on-year, and is forecasted to accelerate at a CAGR of 17.3% from 2024-2027. And with remote access and hybrid work a mainstay of the modern enterprise, cyber threats are challenging your organisation like never before. That’s why the most forward-thinking businesses are implementing Zero Trust.

Organisations in Singapore recognise the benefits of adopting the Zero Trust model. But, a recent Entrust survey reveals that while more than half of IT practitioners in Singapore have strong leadership support for Zero Trust, nearly 30% of organisations have yet to begin implementing this security approach. Another half are still at various stages of implementation.
