Zero Trust Architecture in Cloud Environments: A Framework for Securing Distributed Systems
Abstract
Modern digital breaches occur because cloud technology exploded while network complexity grew, untrusting previous security boundary systems. Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA) is the contemporary strategic design that achieves identity-driven verification while dividing system resources into numerous sections to replace previous implicit trust concepts. The investigation establishes a framework for Zero Trust Architecture implementation within cloud environments through its specific analysis of distributed system protection. A developed framework blends original ZTA principles with cloud-native characteristics. It implements IDaaS service and policy monitoring operations through research into industry standards, academic work, and practical implementations of security systems. A complete investigation reveals that Zero Trust Architecture comprises four crucial components: policy enforcement points (PEPs), identity governance systems, telemetry-based monitoring elements, and encrypted communication protocols. The proposed framework proves superior to existing ZTA solutions, including Google, Microsoft, and NIST, since it demonstrates capabilities in hybrid and multi-cloud deployments. Executed correctly, Zero Trust protects from lateral movement hazards and internal threats that strengthen system security. The final part of this study offers organizations both operational recommendations for implementing Zero Trust practices and research validation methods specifically for various cloud system environments.
