Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for controlling network access in a zero trust environment. A method, according to one implementation, includes the step of monitoring and controlling access between a user device and a network application using a zero trust policy engine having a Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) in which no user, user device, or network application is inherently trusted. The method further includes the step of granting trust by allowing the user device to access the network application when identity and context information associated with a user of the user device is verified and when policy checks of the zero trust policy engine are enforced.
