Description: Protection techniques are strategies and methods used to safeguard systems and data from threats. In the context of cybersecurity, these techniques focus on the premise that no entity, whether internal or external, should be trusted by default. This involves implementing stringent security controls and continuously verifying the identity and context of each access to resources. Protection techniques in this model include multi-factor authentication, network segmentation, constant activity monitoring, and the application of access policies based on the principle of least privilege. The idea is to create an environment where every access is evaluated and validated, thereby minimizing the risk of security breaches. These techniques are essential in a world where threats are becoming increasingly sophisticated and where data resides across various environments, requiring a proactive and dynamic approach to information protection.
