Securing a New Digital World with Zero Trust: Hikvision Releases Technology White Paper

Report Overviews Zero Trust to Address Cybersecurity Concerns in Response to Rapid Digital Transformation and Proliferation of IoT Data and Devices

Hikvision has released a new technology white paper, “Securing a New Digital World with Zero Trust: How Zero Trust Cybersecurity is Transforming the IoT (internet of things) Industry.” The white paper explains Zero Trust, outlines why it’s essential within the IoT industry to address cybersecurity concerns, and describes how Hikvision, a global manufacturer of IoT devices with a focus in video surveillance, endorses the concepts of Zero Trust.

While innovative technological advancements have propelled our world and business forward, they’ve also expanded the cyber threat landscape. Major cyberattacks remind of us of the substantial financial impact and reverberating consequences of these breaches. Incidents like the 2013 Target security breach honed in on the vulnerability of cyberattacks on third-party vendor systems. An unpatched vulnerability coupled with inadequate network segmentation compromised the data of almost 147 million people in the 2017 Equifax data breach.

What is Zero Trust and How Does It Help Address Cyber Risk?

Zero Trust is a strategic initiative that was developed to prevent data breaches by eliminating the concept of trust from an organization’s network architecture. In cybersecurity, trust becomes a vulnerability.

Hikvision’s senior cybersecurity director, Chuck Davis, described Zero Trust in a Hikvision blog: “From a cybersecurity perspective, this is a sound approach. Trust No One. The very best IT departments prepare for a situation where any threat actor—be it a nation-state, black hat hacker, or one of your employees—might compromise your network.”

Zero Trust needs to be approached as a mindset and way of doing things. It begins with identifying key assets and network data, known as the “protect surface.” You’ll identify the organization’s critical and valuable data, assets, applications, and services.
