Description: Device Trust is a security approach that focuses on verifying the integrity and security posture of devices before granting them access to critical resources. This concept is fundamental in the Zero Trust security framework, which assumes that no entity, whether internal or external, should be trusted by default. In this context, every device attempting to access the network must be evaluated based on its security status, including checks for software updates, security configurations, and the absence of malware. This approach helps mitigate risks associated with compromised or insecure devices, ensuring that only those meeting established security standards can interact with sensitive systems and data. Device Trust is implemented through technologies such as multi-factor authentication, mobile device management (MDM), and endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions, which allow organizations to maintain strict control over access to their resources. In an increasingly digital work environment where remote work and the use of personal devices are common, this approach becomes essential for protecting IT infrastructure and sensitive data.
