Zero Trust Architecture

Zero Trust Architecture

We design and implement Zero Trust controls across users, devices, workloads, and networks. Our approach follows NIST SP 800-207 principles and delivers measurable improvements in access control maturity.

Command view

What this service changes operationally

Glexia Zero Trust Architecture modernizes access around identity, device posture, workload context, data sensitivity, and continuous verification. The program aligns to NIST and CISA principles while staying practical about legacy systems, cloud adoption, SaaS growth, and business change.

5 Control pillars

Identity, devices, networks, applications, and data are assessed as connected policy surfaces.

Policy Adaptive enforcement

Access decisions use identity, device health, location, session risk, app sensitivity, and data context.

90d Roadmap sprint

The first implementation plan targets high-risk access paths and visible wins before broad platform change.

Operating model

How Glexia runs the service

The engagement is organized into clear delivery lanes so leaders can see what is being assessed, what is changing, and how progress is measured.

Maturity and access-path assessment

We map how users, devices, workloads, applications, and third parties actually reach sensitive systems so Zero Trust decisions begin with observed access rather than product assumptions.

  • Identity, device, network, application, workload, and data maturity review
  • Crown-jewel access path and privilege dependency mapping
  • Shadow SaaS, legacy app, contractor, and third-party access discovery
Policy and architecture design

Controls are designed as a coordinated policy architecture, connecting authentication, device trust, segmentation, workload identity, data controls, logging, and governance.

  • Conditional access, MFA, device compliance, and session policy design
  • Micro-segmentation, ZTNA, app proxy, and workload access patterns
  • Data classification, encryption, DLP, and sensitive workflow controls
Implementation and measurement

We sequence Zero Trust rollout into measurable waves so teams can reduce high-risk access quickly while building the automation, governance, and reporting needed for long-term adoption.

  • Pilot design for executive, admin, remote, and high-risk app access
  • Policy-as-code, logging, analytics, and exception workflow recommendations
  • Executive maturity reporting tied to risk reduction and user impact
Delivery path

From kickoff to measurable outcomes

01 Week 0-2

Map access reality

Inventory identities, devices, apps, networks, data stores, privileged paths, third parties, and legacy access dependencies.

02 Week 2-4

Define target architecture

Design control patterns, policy signals, segmentation model, data protections, logging needs, and governance rules.

03 Week 4-8

Pilot priority controls

Implement high-value policy pilots for risky access paths, administrative activity, remote access, and sensitive applications.

04 Week 8-12

Scale the roadmap

Deliver maturity metrics, rollout waves, exception workflows, automation opportunities, and board-ready progress reporting.

Best fit

  • Organizations moving from perimeter security to identity, device, workload, and data-driven access control
  • Hybrid and cloud-heavy teams with remote work, SaaS sprawl, contractor access, or legacy segmentation gaps
  • Security leaders who need a practical Zero Trust roadmap rather than a tool-led transformation
Service FAQ

Zero Trust Architecture questions leaders ask

Short answers for scope, operating model, and implementation decisions before a formal engagement begins.

Is Zero Trust only an identity project?

No. Identity is central, but a durable Zero Trust architecture also needs device posture, application context, workload identity, network segmentation, data sensitivity, visibility, automation, and governance. We connect these controls so policy decisions can reflect real risk.

Can Zero Trust work with legacy applications?

Yes. Legacy apps usually need compensating controls such as app proxies, jump paths, segmentation, privileged access workflows, stronger monitoring, and staged migration. We design patterns that reduce access risk without forcing a risky rip-and-replace.

How do you measure Zero Trust progress?

We measure progress through coverage and risk metrics: MFA and conditional access adoption, unmanaged device reduction, privileged access exposure, segmented workloads, protected data flows, policy exceptions, and the number of high-risk access paths closed.
