Abstract

The zero trust network security model has become a serious alternative to the traditional network model. As it is known, when the network structures were first established, providing security was not the main goal. The widespread use of the Internet, the increase in the amount of shared information, and easy accessibility have brought concerns about information security into our lives. Zero trust stepped in at this point and brought a brand new understanding with the concept of "never trust - Always verify". This understanding, which was accepted in a short time, gradually caused companies to segment their network structures and develop integrated products. Zero trust security model consists of User, Data, Device, Application and Network traffic components. The most important of these components is the end point devices, which are described as users. Because a cyber attack starts at an endpoint and its target ends at an endpoint. In this context, the article will emphasize the importance of the endpoint in zero trust architecture, and the benefits of extending the Zero trust security platform to the end user.

Keywords

Endpoint authentication and authorization, endpoint secure access, zero trust architechture, zero trust network architechture.

SIFIR GÜVEN AĞ ERİŞİM MİMARİSİNDE KULLANICI GÜVENLİĞİNİN SAĞLANMASI

Abstract

Sıfır güven ağ güvenlik modeli, geleneksel ağ modeline ciddi bir alternatif haline gelmiştir. Bilindiği gibi ağ yapıları ilk kurulduğunda asıl amaç güvenliği sağlamak değildi. İnternetin yaygınlaşması, paylaşılan bilgi miktarının artması ve kolay ulaşılabilir olması bilgi güvenliği ile ilgili endişeleri hayatımıza sokmuştur. Sıfır güven bu noktada devreye girmiş ve "asla güvenme-her zaman doğrula" kavramıyla yepyeni bir anlayış getirmiştir. Kısa sürede kabul gören bu anlayış, şirketlerin giderek ağ yapılarını segmentlere ayırmalarına ve entegre ürünler geliştirmelerine neden olmuştur. Sıfır güven güvenlik modeli Kullanıcı, Veri, Cihaz, Uygulama ve Ağ trafiği bileşenlerinden oluşur. Bu bileşenlerden en önemlisi, kullanıcı olarak tanımlanan uç nokta cihazlarıdır. Çünkü siber saldırı bir uç noktada başlar ve hedefi bir uç noktada biter. Bu bağlamda makale, sıfır güven mimarisinde uç noktanın önemini ve Sıfır güven güvenlik platformunu son kullanıcıya genişletmenin faydalarını vurgulayacaktır.

Keywords
