A Guide to Zero Trust

The Concept and Challenge: Zero Trust Architecture

Is your Identity and Access Management program a security enabler or a risk vector?

Sophisticated data breaches highlight the need to protect enterprise systems and data. Large commercial organizations and federal agencies are exploring how to implement the Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) model but face these harrowing challenges:

  • Identity data must be authoritative and immediately available for ZTA
  • Legacy systems may provide obstacles to Zero Trust
  • Many organizations face extreme identity complexity and fragmentation
  • Creating a global view of identity is difficult to deliver

Achieving Zero Trust Requires High-Quality Identity Data

High-quality identity data is paramount to enabling a Zero Trust Architecture because it satisfies a number of critical needs, particularly in the following areas:

  • Authentication and authorization
  • Granular access control
  • Continuous monitoring and validation
  • Enabling a security-first approach

So what are the benefits of enabling Zero Trust using your existing identity infrastructure? Identity is the new perimeter, but today’s complex infrastructures must consolidate and transform data to prevent breaches.

Zero Trust with Radiant Logic

The RadiantOne identity data and access platform lays the groundwork for successful Zero Trust initiatives by providing:

  • Unified identity data that fuels your IAM program
  • Granular attributes to support real-time, least-privilege decisions
  • Real-time, bi-directional synchronization
  • Seamless integration with other IAM and security tools
  • Simplified implementation to speed time to value

With RadiantOne as the foundation of your IAM ecosystem, you can:

  • Combat complexity and lay the unified identity foundation for Zero Trust
  • Build your identity unification platform to enable strict Zero Trust verification
  • Deliver a single source of truth to drive policy decisions and user experience
  • Add key context to all your identity for finer-grained authorization decisions

RadiantOne Is Built to Support Your “Always Verify” Policy Decisions

RadiantOne simplifies identity-first security by removing the friction that often stalls Zero Trust initiatives. With centralized, high-quality identity data, teams can consistently enforce policies across fragmented systems and make smarter access decisions — knowing exactly who has access, and why.

Automated, fine-grained authorization replaces manual overhead with dynamic group logic, reducing risk and effort in equal measure.

The result: a more agile, resilient identity ecosystem where policy enforcement is easy, access is appropriate, and governance just works.
