Abstract

This paper explores the implementation of Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) within cloud-native environments, emphasizing its scalability and adaptability to dynamic cloud infrastructures. It aims to highlight how ZTA mitigates emerging cybersecurity threats by eliminating implicit trust and enforcing continuous verification of users and devices. The study provides a comprehensive framework that integrates identity-centric security controls, micro-segmentation, and real-time monitoring to enhance protection in distributed cloud ecosystems. These insights serve as a foundation for advancing resilient cybersecurity strategies in modern cloud deployments.
