As the workforce disperses beyond the corporate perimeter, Zero Trust is essential to tie identity to device posture rather than assuming anything inside the network is safe. Because MFA alone cannot detect compromised endpoints or stolen session tokens, solutions like Specops Device Trust bind identity to a verified device and enforce continuous posture checks to secure access. #SpecopsDeviceTrust #ActiveDirectory
Keypoints
- The traditional secure perimeter is obsolete as work moves to hybrid environments.
- MFA verifies who a user is but does not guarantee the device or session is safe.
- Attackers use infostealers, token theft, and session hijacking to bypass identity checks.
- Device trust integrated into authentication enables contextual, real-time access decisions.
- Continuous monitoring and automated remediation are essential for achieving true Zero Trust.
