Course Overview

Traditional perimeter security models no longer protect organizations in an environment of cloud adoption, mobile workforces, and advanced cyberattacks. Zero Trust—“never trust, always verify”—requires shifting to identity-centric models, enforcing least-privilege access, and applying adaptive monitoring.

This course provides a structured roadmap for designing and implementing Zero Trust frameworks across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises systems. Participants will gain technical and governance insights into integrating Zero Trust with compliance, risk management, and executive oversight.

At EuroQuest International Training, the program blends technical instruction with strategic planning, ensuring participants are equipped to lead Zero Trust initiatives in their organizations.
