Systems and methods are provided for controlling access to resources in a zero-trust computing environment. Requests for access to resources of the zero-trust environment are tracked, including tracking determinations to grant or deny access to resources of the environment. A trust score is calculated for a resource based on users requesting access to the resource, hardware components requesting access to the resource, software applications requesting access to the resource, networks used to request access to the resource and data exposed by providing the requested access to the resource. The trust score of the resource is adjusted upwards based on determinations to grant access to the resource and downwards based on determinations to deny access to the resource. Request for access to the resource are evaluated based on policies of the zero-trust environment that govern access to the resource, based in part on the adjusted trust score of the resource.

Resource access using a trust scoring framework in a zero-trust computing environment

Systems and methods control access to resources in a zero-trust computing environment. Requests for access to resources are tracked, including tracking determinations to grant or deny requested access. Based on the tracked requests, an identity tenant trust score is calculated based on users that request access to a resource and based on a number of such requests that are granted and denied. A hardware tenant trust score is calculated based on hardware that requests access to the resource and based on a number of such requests that are granted and denied. A software tenant trust score is calculated based on software applications that request access to the first resource and further and based on a number of such requests that are granted and denied. The identity tenant trust score, hardware tenant trust score and software tenant trust score are aggregated to generate a trust score for the resource.

System-metrics based trust scoring in a zero-trust computing environment

System and methods provide a visualization for use in configuring controlled access to resources in a zero-trust computing environment. A request from a user for access to a resource of the zero-trust environment is received. When visualization of the request is enabled, a visualization of the request is initiated. An identity tenant trust score for the resource is calculated based on a record of users requesting access to the first resource. A hardware tenant trust score is calculated based on a record of hardware requesting access to the resource. A software tenant trust score is calculated based on a record of software requesting access to the resource. The visualization that is generated displays the identity tenant trust score, the hardware tenant trust score and the software tenant trust score associated with the request.
