CISSP study material · question 32 of 500
A manufacturer is rebuilding remote access around a zero trust architecture. Engineers argue that company-issued laptops sitting on the plant's internal LAN should reach the production historian directly, since both the hardware and the segment are corporate property. The security architect rejects this. Which statement reflects the model the architect is applying?
Show the answer
Answer: B. The subject and the device are authenticated as separate steps, and both conclude before the session to the resource opens.
Zero trust authenticates subject and asset separately before any resource session; corporate ownership and presence on the internal LAN confer no implicit trust.
