# Zero Trust Architecture Workshop

> Design Zero Trust security models through mentor-led sessions and practical architecture scenarios. This workshop focuses on identity-first security, segmentation, and continuous verification principles.

## Overview

Traditional perimeter-based security models are no longer sufficient in modern, distributed environments. Organisations now require security approaches that assume breach and continuously verify users, devices, and workloads.

This mentor-led workshop introduces the principles of Zero Trust Architecture, focusing on identity-first security, segmentation, and continuous verification. The programme explores how to design secure architectures across cloud, on-premises, and hybrid environments.

Through practical scenarios and guided exercises, learners explore how to implement least privilege access, micro-segmentation, and strong authentication strategies. By the end of the workshop, participants will understand how to design and apply Zero Trust principles in real-world environments.

## Prerequisites

- Basic understanding of networking and security concepts.
- Familiarity with identity and access management concepts.
- Prior exposure to cloud or enterprise environments is helpful.
