Description: Risk mitigation in governance within the context of Zero Trust in the cloud refers to the strategies and actions implemented to reduce the risks associated with data and resource governance in cloud environments. This approach is based on the premise that no entity, whether internal or external, should be trusted by default. Instead, continuous verification of identity and access context is required. Key characteristics of this mitigation include network segmentation, multi-factor authentication, and constant monitoring of activities. The relevance of this approach lies in the growing adoption of cloud services and the need to protect sensitive data from cyber threats. By implementing a robust governance framework that aligns with Zero Trust principles, organizations can ensure that only authorized users have access to critical information, thereby minimizing the risk of security breaches and ensuring regulatory compliance. This approach not only enhances security but also fosters a culture of accountability and transparency in data management, which is essential in an increasingly complex digital environment.
