State Of Zero Trust in The Enterprise:Shift To Identity-Powered Security

whitePaper | September 28, 2022

The present White Paper will focus on MEC (Multi-access Edge Computing) technologies and intends to explore security-related use cases and requirements with the aim of identifying aspects of security where the nature of edge computing results in insufficient industry approaches to cloud security. Edge computing environments are by nature characterized by a complex multi-vendor, multi-supplier, multi-stakeholder ecosystem of equipment including both HW and SW devices. Given this overall level of system heterogeneity, the areas of security, trust, and privacy are key topics for the edge environments. Finally, the advent of edge cloud federations and the presence of (far) edge devices, e.g., in Internet-ofThings environments, requires tackling MEC security with an end-to-end (E2E) approach by leveraging existing standards relevant in the area, as carefully selected to be applicable in edge computing systems.

Targeted intrusions for gaining long-term access and collecting data about industrial control systems (ICS) are becoming much more frequent. Many of these attacks are about understanding the network and preparing for future activities without causing any immediate impact. The most recent Dragos Year in Review6 report shows that the ransomware groups Lockbit 2.0 and Conti were responsible for more than half of the observed ransomware attacks in industrial environments in 2021, and that these instances resulted in actions on objectives. These attacks have been observed in almost every industrial vertical, primarily targeting small to medium-sized organizations in manufacturing.

Are you confident that only the right people are getting access to your sensitive business assets? Organizations have to be concerned about privileged insiders compromising security and about outsiders posing as authorized users but who really aren't. Putting effective defenses into place, as a result, requires organizations to look both ways.

In this sophisticated threat environment, traditional security tactics are failing. Symantec encourages organizations to revisit their security posture to build a more cyber resilient enterprise. Resilience is not defined by a series of checklists, but through evaluations based on the current threat environment and the acceptable risk level for the organization.

In the evolution of Internet-based technologies, Web 2.0 introduced popular decentralized services that accelerated interactivity between websites and users. Looking to capitalize on this innovation, businesses rushed to launch applications to the market. However, both the Web 2.0 architecture and dependent businesses failed to incorporate key security principles into the design and implementation of these services, resulting in critical vulnerabilities.
