Organizations have come to rely on the cloud for many of their computing workloads. This trend has been accelerated by the urgent prioritization of security, the redefined needs of the hybrid and distributed workforce, and a surge in data analytics, machine learning (ML), and artificial intelligence (AI) that benefit from the cloud’s uninterrupted access to software, data, and other resources, anywhere, at any time. The cloud also connects organizations, networks, and users to edge computing devices and systems. These trends yield a vastly expanded, diverse range of users, devices, and applica

Zero trust is a comprehensive security strategy that is designed to protect all hardware, software, data, and users on an organization’s network and in the cloud. A zero trust approach to security differs from the more traditional perimeter defense strategy. In a perimeter defense, the organization protects the boundaries of its private network with firewalls and multilayered software security solutions to regulate and filter traffic to and from the public network. Once a user or device has been verified and admitted to the private network, it is typically treated as a trusted resource. By con

Zero trust is a security strategy that supports continuous protection against intrusions and malicious code. Cloud-based operations demand a zero trust approach because a defensive perimeter cannot be established. A zero trust strategy should provide multifaceted, layered protections to support defense in depth. Intel® platforms offer hardware-based security capabilities that can strengthen zero trust policies and protections.

A TPM, or a trusted platform module, is a physical or embedded security technology (microcontroller) that resides on a computer’s motherboard or in its processor. TPMs use cryptography to help securely store essential and critical information on PCs to enable platform authentication. They store a variety of sensitive information—such as user credentials, passwords, fingerprints, certificates, encryption keys, or other important consumer documentation—behind a hardware barrier to keep it safe from external attacks. While the use of TPM technology has been part of enterprise IT for more than
