ZTNA
Zero Trust Network Access
Grants per-session access to applications based on identity and policy, never implicit trust.
ZTNA enforces the zero trust principle of never trust, always verify by granting access to specific applications per session based on verified identity, device posture, and policy rather than network location. Resources stay hidden until authorization succeeds, shrinking the attack surface and limiting lateral movement. It is frequently contrasted with traditional VPNs, which often grant broad network-level access once connected. ZTNA is a core component of the broader secure access service edge framework.
Zero Trust Network Access: verify every request and grant access to one app, never the whole network.
Looking ZTNA up is step one. Getting tested on it is step two.
