Zero Trust in practice: a 90-day starting plan
Zero Trust is a journey, not a product. Here is a pragmatic first 90 days.
“Never trust, always verify” sounds simple; implementing it is not. A phased plan keeps progress visible.
Days 1–30: visibility
- Inventory users, devices, applications and data flows.
- Enforce MFA for all remote and privileged access.
- Identify crown-jewel systems.
Days 31–60: control
- Introduce conditional access based on device health.
- Segment the network around critical systems.
- Deploy privileged access management for admins.
Days 61–90: monitor & improve
- Feed identity, endpoint and firewall logs into the SIEM.
- Define incident playbooks and run a tabletop exercise.
- Map controls to NCA ECC or ISO 27001 for reporting.
